A type of network device that amplifies received signal so it can be transmitted over greater distance without loss in quality is called:
A
Patch Panel
B
Multiplexer
C
Repeater
D
Passive Hub
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In telecommunications, a repeater is an electronic device that receives a signal and retransmits it. Repeaters are used to extend transmissions so that the signal can cover longer distances or be received on the other side of an obstruction.

Detailed explanation-2: -Repeater. A repeater is a two-port device that operates at the physical layer . It is used to regenerate the signal over the same network before it becomes too weak or corrupted, allowing the signal to be transmitted for a longer distance over the same network.

Detailed explanation-3: -Repeaters in computer networks increase network coverage, replicate a weak signal, and amplify the input signal to a higher frequency domain, allowing it to be reused, scalable, and available.
