i think its the 7919a, ill heve to check if i can find some of it stashed, it has powdery stuff, no wet gel and the shield was heavy you coule fold it back without worrying about it tearing, or twist it to put it into a gound, the braided drain would uncoil off the sheath if you didnt hold it with your thumb or tape it, but slipping the shielded connectors over it didnt tear the foil. You could trust it if it was buried, though i dont think it was rated for it, Ive never seen apex come out of the ground with a dry interior
