For a high-speed internet connection in a dense urban setting with multiple potential interference sources, which transmission medium would be the most appropriate?
- Coaxial Cable
- Fiber Optic
- Twisted Pair
- Wireless
Fiber Optic - Fiber optic cables are ideal for high-speed internet connections in dense urban settings due to their immunity to electromagnetic interference. They use light signals for data transmission and are not susceptible to the electromagnetic interference that can affect other media like coaxial or twisted-pair cables.
