As part of the reimplementation phase of an existing network, you are assigned to implement a cabling that is capable of spanning up to 2km when running in full duplex mode. You come with a solution to use an optical-based data transmission, specifically the 100BASE-FX media, instead of a copper-based media. What are the advantages of choosing such media type? (Choose two)
provides more security
reduced interference from EMF devices
parts of the cable doesn't break easily
it cheaper than copper cables
high-voltage use means data transfer is faster
The media type 100BASE-FX is a Fiber-optic cable used in FastEthernet network that can span up to 2000 meters or two kilometers when running in full duplex mode. It transmits data up to 100Mbps. 1000BASE-FX is the Gigabit version, and the T-based media types are Copper-based. Fiber optic cables provide more security because it is harder to tap because they don't emit signals. High voltage is not involved in Fiber optic cables. They provide faster transmission of data than other media types. Also, Fiber optic cables don't interfere with each other, and are not susceptible to EMI or EMF devices.
