Which statement correctly matches a connectivity type to its description?

• A. Not suited for heavily wooded areas - Satellite
• B. Uses coaxial cable as a medium - Cable
• C. Typically has very low bandwidth - Dial-up telephone
• D. High bandwidth connection that runs over telephone line - DSL

Answer: (A)

Line-of-sight is crucial for satellite Internet. The signal travels from your dish to a satellite in orbit, and dense trees can block or scatter that signal, causing outages or degraded performance. That’s why the statement noting it’s not suited for heavily wooded areas matches satellite best.

In contrast, coaxial cable describes cable broadband, which uses a physical coaxial cable to deliver service. Dial-up is associated with very low bandwidth because it uses a phone line and modem for data transmission, typically far slower than modern broadband. DSL runs over the same telephone lines but uses higher-frequency channels to provide greater bandwidth than dial-up, though its speed declines with distance from the provider’s equipment.
