- Al stranding
- 30 × 2.79
- Steel stranding
- 7 × 2.79
- Overall dia. (mm)

The high steel fraction of the 30/7 construction gives Lynx a breaking load near 80 kN, suiting it to longer sub-transmission and transmission spans. The table below quotes the catalogue specification; for corrosive regions, consider the aluminium-clad-core build (ACSR/AW) as well.
