amount of info a communications medium can transfer in a given time

C.

cost of the cable required to implement a LAN

D.

amount of frequencies used for sending electronic signals

Correct option is B

The correct answer is (b) amount of info a communications medium can transfer in a given time
Explanation:
● Bandwidth is the maximum rate of data transfer across a given path.
● It is typically measured in bits per second (bps), Mbps, or Gbps.
Information Booster:
● Higher bandwidth means more data can be transferred simultaneously.
● Bandwidth is not the same as speed (latency).
● Networks with high bandwidth allow multiple devices or users to access data simultaneously without a noticeable slowdown.
● Bandwidth is often confused with latency, but latency refers to the delay in data transmission, while bandwidth refers to the amount of data that can be transmitted.
Additional Knowledge:
● Broad-band refers to high-capacity transmission.
