Right option is (c) A combination of Fibre cable and Coaxial cable

To explain I would say: Hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) is a telecommunications industry term for a broadband network that combines optical fiber and coaxial cable. It has been popularly used since the early 1990s. It is stronger than the optical fiber cables and faster than the co-axial cables.
