The correct answer is D. Cat 6a. Cat 6a (Category 6 Augmented) cables are designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) speeds over distances of up to 100 meters. They offer improved performance over Cat 5e cables, including higher bandwidth and reduced interference. Here's why the other options are incorrect: A. Cat 3: Cat 3 cables are outdated and only support low-speed data transmission. B. Cat 5: Cat 5 cables can support up to 100 Mbps and are not suitable for 10GBASE-T. C. Cat 5e: Cat 5e cables can support up to 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T), but not 10GBASE-T. Therefore, Cat 6a is the appropriate cable type for 10GBASE-T networks. GG
