A network technician is tasked with setting up a high-speed network in an environment with high electromagnetic interference (EMI). Which of the given options would be the BEST type of cable should the technician install to ensure data integrity and minimize the risk of transmission errors?
Fiber optic cables are immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI), making them the ideal choice in environments with high EMI. They use light to transmit data, which is not affected by EMI, unlike electrical signals in copper cables.
