Twisted Pair:

- Consists of two insulated copper wires twisted around each other
- Cheaper and easier to install compared to coaxial cable and optic fiber
- Susceptible to electromagnetic interference and crosstalk

Coaxial Cable:
- Consists of a center conductor surrounded by a insulating layer, a metallic shield, and an outer insulating layer
- More expensive and difficult to install compared to twisted pair
- More resistant to electromagnetic interference and crosstalk than twisted pair

Optic Fiber:
- Utilizes pulses of light to transmit data instead of electrical signals
- Offers high bandwidth and low attenuation, allowing for longer distance transmissions
- Most expensive and difficult to install of the three media types
- Highly resistant to electromagnetic interference and crosstalk

Overall, optic fiber offers the highest performance and reliability, while twisted pair is the most cost-effective option for LAN transport media. Coaxial cable falls in between the two in terms of performance and cost.
