What is a characteristic of a Private Line in WAN?

A Private Line in a Wide Area Network (WAN) is specifically designed to provide dedicated, point-to-point communication between two locations. This characteristic means that the data sent over a Private Line is not shared with other customers, ensuring that the communication remains confidential and secure.

Unlike public lines where data may be broadcast over shared infrastructure, a Private Line offers a level of exclusivity and security that prevents unauthorized access to the transmitted data. As a result, the information sent over this type of connection cannot be copied or accessed by other customers of the telecommunications provider. This makes it a preferred choice for businesses needing secure and reliable data transmission, such as for financial transactions or sensitive corporate communications.

In contrast, characteristics associated with options mentioning accessibility by other customers, public data, or interception by third parties do not apply to a Private Line, as these elements undermine the very purpose of having a dedicated and secure communication path.
