Which of these networking media can operate the longest distance without any signal regeneration?
A) Single-mode fiber
B) Unshielded twisted pair
C) Shielded twisted pair
D) Multi-mode fiber
E) Would a regenerated signal be zombie?
The answer: A) Single-mode fiber
A single-mode fiber connection can support a single run of 100 kilometers. Multi-mode fiber can support a single run of about 2 kilometers, and the limit of both shielded and unshielded twisted pair is about 100 meters.
