Exam N10-008 topic 1 question 404 discussion

I think this is A. Cat7 uses it's own termination not 568-a It can extend to 100m at 10Gbps and just no on the f-type connector

The TIA/EIA-568-A (Telecommunications Industry Association/Electronic Industries Association) standard outlines the specifications for telecommunications cabling, including the termination of connectors. For Cat 7 cabling, adherence to the appropriate termination standard is crucial to ensure proper performance and compliance with the specified category. The correct termination standard for Cat 7 cabling is essential for achieving the desired transmission characteristics and maintaining signal integrity.

Cat 7 is not recognized by TIA/EIA but appears in the cabling standards created by the ISO (ISO/IEC 11801). It must be terminated with GG45 or TERA connectors rather than standard RJ-45 connectors. 10GBASE-Tv @ 100 meters

The cable must be able to connect to a (Data Communication Device (DCE) which can be a switch, or router connecting them to their ISP & Border Gateway. This is the TIA/EIA-568-A standard. An exception to this would be if there is a CAT 7 TIA/EIA DTE to DTE cross-over cable (TIA/EIA-568-B to TIA/EIA-568-B).

it is A

It's A. The TIA/EIA-568-A(B) standards have nothing to do with the CAT of the cable. It doesn't matter if it's CAT3 or CAT7, because that standard only has to do with the color code layout. It specifically refers to the position of the Green and Orange pairs, but it doesn't matter if it's UTP or STP cable, nor does it affect the speed or certification of a specific CAT of a cable. In fact most facilities use the B standard because A is reserved for specific use, usually GOVT facilities. So making sure the patch panel is rated the same as the cable is the most important thing from the choices given. Also every single patch panel is already TIA/EIA-568-A and B by default, because again, it only refers to the color code... just flip the Green and Orange and POOF! you magically changed it to B.

It's D "Category 7 (Cat 7) is a cabling standard that supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet connections up to 100 meters (328 feet). In order for a cabling system to be certified as Cat 7, all components, including the patch panel, must meet the TIA/EIA-568-A standard. This standard requires the use of shielded cables with F-type connectors for the network terminations." Reference: CompTIA Network+ Study Manual, 8th Edition, page 158

A. Ensure the patch panel is certified for the same category.

Certifying a network cabling as Cat 7 requires that all components used in the installation, including the cabling, connectors, and patch panel, meet the Cat 7 specifications. In other words, to certify the network cabling as Cat 7, the patch panel must also be certified for the same category

The answer is A. There was another similar question on here where the answer was about certifying the patch panel. Ghosting's reasoning is yes.

A. Ensure the patch panel is certified for the same category.

Answer is A. Cat 7 is rated to 100 meters at 10Gbps. Its Cat 6 thats rated to 55 Meters at 10Gbps

The correct answer is B. Limit 10Gb transmissions to 180ft (55m). Cat 7 cabling is designed to support up to 10Gb/s data rates up to a maximum distance of 100 meters. However, to certify a network cabling as Cat 7, it must be tested and shown to meet the standards specified in the Category 7 standard, including a requirement to limit 10Gb transmissions to 180ft (55m). The other options listed are not specific to Cat 7 cabling.

I am unable to find any information verifying this as a correct answer...
