Which of the following allows for the FARTHEST transmission distance for data?

The correct answer is B. Single-mode fibre. Single-mode fiber optic cable can transmit data over the longest distances - typically 40 km to over 100 km without a repeater, depending on the standard. It uses a narrow laser light source that minimizes signal dispersion. In contrast, CAT6 copper cable is limited to 100…

Explanation

Single-mode fiber optic cable can transmit data over the longest distances - typically 40 km to over 100 km without a repeater, depending on the standard. It uses a narrow laser light source that minimizes signal dispersion. In contrast, CAT6 copper cable is limited to 100 meters, RG-6 coaxial cable is typically effective up to a few hundred meters, and Bluetooth has a practical range of only 10 to 100 meters.
