Question 1 of 23
1. Question
2 pointsWhat are two reasons for physical layer protocols to use frame encoding techniques? (Choose two.)Correct
Incorrect
An encoding technique converts a stream of data bits in a predefined code that can be recognized by both the transmitter and the receiver. Using predefined patterns helps to differentiate data bits from control bits and provide better media error detection.

Question 2 of 23
2. Question
1 pointsWhat is indicated by the term throughput?Correct
Incorrect
Throughput is the measure of the transfer of bits across the media over a given period of time. Throughput is affected by a number of factors such as, EMI and latency, so it rarely matches the specified bandwidth for a network medium. The throughput measurement includes user data bits and other data bits, such as overhead, acknowledging, and encapsulation. The measure of the usable data transferred across the media is called goodput.Hint

Question 4 of 23
4. Question
2 pointsA network administrator notices that some newly installed Ethernet cabling is carrying corrupt and distorted data signals. The new cabling was installed in the ceiling close to fluorescent lights and electrical equipment. Which two factors may interfere with the copper cabling and result in signal distortion and data corruption? (Choose two.)
Correct
Incorrect
EMI and RFI signals can distort and corrupt data signals that are carried by copper media. These distortions usually come from radio waves and electromagnetic devices such as motors and florescent lights. Crosstalk is a disturbance that is caused by adjacent wires bundled too close together with the magnetic field of one wire affecting another. Signal attenuation is caused when an electrical signal begins to deteriorate over the length of a copper cable.Hint

Question 5 of 23
5. Question
1 pointsWhich characteristic describes crosstalk?Correct
Incorrect
EMI and RFI can distort network signals because of interference from fluorescent lights or electric motors. Attenuation results in deterioration of the network signal as it travels along copper cabling. Wireless devices can experience loss of signals because of excessive distances from a access point, but this is not crosstalk. Crosstalk is the disturbance caused by the electric or magnetic fields of the signal carried on an adjacent wire within the same cable.Hint

Question 6 of 23
6. Question
1 pointsWhat technique is used with UTP cable to help protect against signal interference from crosstalk?Correct
Incorrect
To help prevent the effects of crosstalk, UTP cable wires are twisted together into pairs. Twisting the wires together causes the magnetic fields of each wire to cancel each other out.Hint

Question 7 of 23
7. Question
1 pointsRefer to the exhibit. The PC is connected to the console port of the switch. All the other connections are made through FastEthernet links. Which types of UTP cables can be used to connect the devices?
ITN Chapter 4 Exam Answers 001
Correct
Incorrect
A straight-through cable is commonly used to interconnect a host to a switch and a switch to a router. A crossover cable is used to interconnect similar devices together like switch to a switch, a host to a host, or a router to a router. If a switch has the MDIX capability, a crossover could be used to connect the switch to the router; however, that option is not available. A rollover cable is used to connect to a router or switch console port.Hint

8. Question
1 pointsRefer to the exhibit. What is wrong with the displayed termination?
ITN Chapter 4 Exam Answers 002
Correct
Incorrect
When a cable to an RJ-45 connector is terminated, it is important to ensure that the untwisted wires are not too long and that the flexible plastic sheath surrounding the wires is crimped down and not the bare wires. None of the colored wires should be visible from the bottom of the jack.Hint

Question 10 of 23
10. Question
1 pointsWhat is one advantage of using fiber optic cabling rather than copper cabling?Correct
Incorrect
Copper cabling is usually cheaper and easier to install than fiber optic cabling. However, fiber cables generally have a much greater signaling range than copper.Hint

Question 11 of 23
11. Question
1 pointsWhy are two strands of fiber used for a single fiber optic connection?Correct
Incorrect
Light can only travel in one direction down a single strand of fiber. In order to allow for full-duplex communication two strands of fiber must be connected between each device.Hint

Question 12 of 23
12. Question
3 pointsA network administrator is designing the layout of a new wireless network. Which three areas of concern should be accounted for when building a wireless network? (Choose three.)Correct
Incorrect
The three areas of concern for wireless networks focus on the size of the coverage area, any nearby interference, and providing network security. Extensive cabling is not a concern for wireless networks, as a wireless network will require minimal cabling for providing wireless access to hosts. Mobility options are not a component of the areas of concern for wireless networks.Hint

Question 14 of 23
14. Question
1 pointsWhat is a role of the Logical Link Control sublayer?Correct
Incorrect
There are two data link sublayers, MAC and LLC. The LLC sublayer is responsible for communicating with the network layer and for tagging frames to identify what Layer 3 protocol is encapsulated.Hint

Question 15 of 23
15. Question
2 pointsWhat are two services performed by the data link layer of the OSI model? (Choose two.)Correct
Incorrect
The data link layer is responsible for the exchange of frames between nodes over a physical network media. Specifically the data link layer performs two basic services:
- It accepts Layer 3 packets and encapsulates them into frames.
- It provides media access control and performs error detection.
Path determination is a service provided at Layer 3. A Layer 2 switch builds a MAC address table as part of its operation, but path determination is not the service that is provided by the data link layer.
