Which of the following is a characteristic of a cable that states the distance at which the signal traveling on a cable begins to weaken?
  1. Cancellation
  2. Crosstalk
  3. Interference
  4. Attenuation
Explanation
Answer - D - The characteristic of a cable that states the distance at which the signal traveling on a cable begins to weaken is attenuation.

Key Takeaway: Attenuation is the reduction of signal strength during transmission. Attenuation is one of the crucial properties while selecting a cable or a transmission standard. Attenuation is measured in decibels and can be countered using repeaters at regular intervals.
