Selected Answer: B
The workstation was likely connected to a hub, which operates at half-duplex by design. Hubs share bandwidth among all connected devices, meaning they can only send or receive data at a time (half-duplex), not both simultaneously (full-duplex). This explains why the workstation was not connected at full duplex. A. Media converter simply converts media types (e.g., fiber to copper) and doesn't affect duplex settings. C. Bridge operates more intelligently and typically supports full-duplex communication. D. Layer 3 switch operates at higher efficiency and supports full-duplex on all ports.
