CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 136

A network administrator would like to increase network bandwidth to 1Gbps between two office buildings that are 0.5mi(805m) apart. Which of the following would be the BEST solution?

Answer options

• A. Fiber
• B. Coaxial
• C. Plenum
• D. Cat 6

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The best solution is Fiber, as it supports high bandwidths over long distances without significant signal degradation. Coaxial and Cat 6 cables cannot achieve the same speeds over 0.5 miles, and Plenum refers to a type of cable insulation, not a solution for increasing bandwidth.
