company says the opticalCON armored cable is particularly robust and resists even ‘extraordinary’ strains. There is also a pulling sock, which is available as a
single and split version; this is said to simplify the installation at a pulling force greater than 100kg. This Advanced pulling solution offers optimal protection for the cable connectors in even the harshest of environments, Neutrik says.
