Network Fundamentals

Drag and drop the characteristic on the left to the correct cable type on the right.

Drag & Drop
contains a conductor, bedding, and sheathing
is typically used for DWDM optical systems spanning long distances
is typically used in small office applications
eliminates distortion from overlapping light pulses
copper
single-mode fiber
Explanation

Copper cable uses an electrical conductor and protective layers such as bedding and sheathing, and it is the common choice for shorter-run LAN wiring in small office environments. Single-mode fiber is designed for long-distance optical transmission, including DWDM deployments, because its small core greatly reduces modal dispersion so light pulses do not spread and overlap.
