Question 17

Which transmission media is capable of having a much higher bandwidth (data capacity) ?

  1. Coaxial
  2. Twisted pair cable
  3. Untwisted cable
  4. Fibre optic
Answer

Fibre optic

Reason — Optical fibers consist of thin strands of glass which are so constructed that they carry light from a source at one end of the fiber to a detector at the other end. Thus, the bandwidth of the medium is potentially very high.
