A
CAT
B
Fiber Optic
C
Coaxial
D
RJ11
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Unshielded twisted pair cable is extensively used in horizontal & backbone cabling subsystems. UTP cables are used as ethernet cables and telephone wires for short to medium distances to transfer data and audio signals.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cables for Backbone Cabling With the emerge of Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, fiber optic cable is the most appropriate choice for backbone cabling since they provide much higher bandwidth than traditional Cat5, Cat6 or even Cat7 twisted pair copper cables.

Detailed explanation-3: -Twisted pair This type of cable is used for home and corporate Ethernet networks. Twisted pair cabling is used in short patch cables and in the longer runs in structured cabling. There are two types of twisted pair cables: shielded and unshielded.

Detailed explanation-4: -Twisted-pair cable is a type of cabling that is used for telephone communications and most modern Ethernet networks. A pair of wires forms a circuit that can transmit data. The pairs are twisted to provide protection against crosstalk, the noise generated by adjacent pairs.
