Answer options

• A. Cat6a
• B. RG-6
• C. UTP
• D. Multimode
• E. Single mode

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is RG-6, as it is specifically designed for carrying cable television and broadband Internet signals, which are essential for a DOCSIS connection. Cat6a and UTP are used for Ethernet networking, while multimode and single mode refer to types of fiber optic cables, which are not applicable in this scenario.
