Explanation

The requirement is at least 50 Gbps of bandwidth with secure connectivity between on-premises and Google Cloud. Dedicated Interconnect provides direct physical connections to Google's network and supports up to 200 Gbps (via multiple 10 Gbps or 100 Gbps circuits), making it the only option capable of reliably meeting a 50 Gbps+ requirement. Cloud VPN (option C) is limited to approximately 3 Gbps per tunnel and transmits over the public internet, which is insufficient. Partner Interconnect (option D) can reach up to 50 Gbps but relies on a service provider intermediary and is typically chosen when a direct Dedicated Interconnect colocation is unavailable - it is less reliable for guaranteeing exactly 50 Gbps. Cloud Router (option B) is a routing component, not a connectivity product.
