Chronicles of the 2022 Baikal Expedition. 360 km of Cables

One can imagine that the Baikal Neutrino Telescope is nothing more than just optical modules. Cables play a key role as well — they supply clusters with voltage and transmit signals. Each string comprises about 4.5 km of cables. That is, the entire telescope with 10 clusters (eight strings in each) will have about 360 km of cables at the end of the expedition. And this is without considering those lines that run to the shore.
