CCNA 1 Module 3 Exam Result

1. What are two advantages of using UTP cable in a networking environment? (Choose two.)

• is stiffer than STP

• is less expensive than fiber

• is easier to install than coaxial

• provides longer distances than coaxial provides

• is less susceptible to outside noise sources than fiber is

2. What are two advantages of using fiber-optic cabling instead of UTP? (Choose two.)

• lower cost

• easer to install

• allows longer distances

• less effected by external signals

• easier to terminate the cable ends

3. What is the difference between a wireless NIC and an Ethernet NIC?

• The Ethernet NIC operates at 100 Mbps, whereas a wireless NIC operates at 10 Mbps.

• The Ethernet NIC uses a PCI expansion slot, and a wireless NIC cannot use an expansion slot.

• The wireless NIC uses CSMA/CA, whereas a Ethernet NIC uses token passing as an access method.

The wireless NIC associates to an access point, and an Ethernet NIC attaches to a hub or switch using a cable.

• The Ethernet NIC attaches to a hub or a switch using only fiber cabling, and a wireless NIC attaches to a wireless antenna using air as a network medium.

4. Which wireless standard operates in the 5 GHZ transmission range and is capable of 54 Mbps of data throughput?

• 802.11

• 802.11a

• 802.11b

• 802.11g

5. A company is converting a cabled LAN to a wireless Ethernet LAN. What must be changed on every host on the network?

• No changes are required.

• Each host will require a new IP address.

• Each host will require an appropriate NIC or adapter.

• Each host will require that the operating system be upgraded.

6.

• A=straight, B=rollover, C=crossover

• A=rollover, B=crossover, C=straight

• A=crossover, B=straight, C=straight

• A=crossover, B=straight, C=rollover

• A=straight, B=crossover, C=rollover

• A=rollover, B=straight, C=crossover

7. What factors should be considered when selecting the appropriate cable for connecting a PC to a network? (Choose two.)

• type of system bus

• motherboard model

• distance of cable run

• computer manufacturer

8. Which Ethernet implementation requires the signal on the media to be boosted at a maximum distance of 100 meters?

• 10BASE2

• 10BASE5

• 100BASE-T

• 100BASE-FX

• 1000BASE-CX

9. When is a straight-through cable used in a network?

12. What does UTP cable rely on to reduce signal degradation caused by EMI and RFI?

• shielding

• magnetism

• cancellation

• insulation

• properly grounded connections

• RJ-45 connectors

13. Select the characteristics specified by 10BaseT. (Choose three.)

• twisted pair cable

• T style connectors

• baseband transmission

• console

• rollover

• crossover

• straight-through

15. Which cable connectors are used to connect a cable from a router's console port to a PC? (Choose two.)

• RJ-11

• RJ-12

• RJ-45

• DB-8

• DB-9

• DB-10
