Why each option
The F-type connector is the standard connector used with coaxial cable, commonly seen on cable TV and cable modem connections.
The F connector is a threaded RF coaxial connector designed specifically for use with coaxial cable. It is widely used in cable television distribution, satellite systems, and cable broadband connections where the coaxial cable's center conductor often serves as the connector pin itself.
LC (Lucent Connector) is a small form-factor fiber optic connector, not used with coaxial cable.
RJ-11 is a modular connector used with twisted-pair telephone and DSL wiring, not coaxial cable.
ST (Straight Tip) is a bayonet-style fiber optic connector used with multimode fiber, not coaxial cable.
