Explanation

A WAN (Wide Area Network) connects geographically separated locations using long-distance links such as T-1 leased lines. The scenario describes three physically distinct sites interconnected via routers and dedicated point-to-point T-1 circuits - the defining characteristics of a WAN. A LAN is confined to a single site, a MAN covers a metro area using shared infrastructure, and a PAN is a personal area network (very short range, e.g., Bluetooth).
