Question

Which of the following networking devices is used to regenerate and transmit the weakened signal ahead?

• A. Hub
• B. Ethernet Card
• C. Repeater
• D. Modem

Hint:

Use a Repeater to extend the range of a network,
especially in wired LANs or wireless bridges.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Signal strength diminishes over extended distances in networking.
A Repeater is a device designed to receive diminished signals,
amplify or restore them, and then retransmit them along the network path.
This process expands the network's operational range past its inherent limitations.
A Hub facilitates connections for multiple devices but lacks signal regeneration capabilities.
An Ethernet Card, installed within devices, serves as a network interface,
enabling network connectivity without signal amplification.
A Modem converts data for transmission and reception over telephone lines,
but its primary function is not signal regeneration.
Consequently, the device responsible for signal regeneration is a Repeater.
