Exam 220-1001 topic 1 question 192 discussion

would it not be C and F as need to locate correct cable first?

Misleading question. I guess the catch is that it states "integrity" of the cable first. Does anyone from ExamTopics review this stuff? I'm thinking about getting my money back.

Definitely.

Tone Generator and Probe are the correct answers

tone generator and probe

The answer for this should be C and F. You can't utilize a cable tester until you can find the other end in the network closet.

Which of the following are the BEST tools for the technician to use to identify the correct network run to troubleshoot? How is this not toner and probe

integrity of the wire = multimeter, identify which cable came from (wiremap) = cable tester Tone = end of the cable

From Mike Myers Comptia a+ books: When the time comes to trace cables, network techs turn to a device called a toner for help. Toner is the generic term for two separate devices that are used together: a tone generator and a tone probe. The tone generator connects to the cable using alligator clips, tiny hooks, or a network jack, and it sends an electrical signal along the wire at a certain frequency. The tone probe emits a sound when it is placed near a cable connected to the tone generator. These two devices are often referred to by the brand-name Fox and Hound, a popular model of toner made by the Triplett Corporation.

The technician has two plans 1, verifying the integrity and 2, identifying the cables. Inorder to check the integrity of the cables s/he must work on identifying the cables first, and the question also is about identifying. Therefore, C and F is the right answer.

B & C of course

To identify that's C and F Guys.

Which of the following are the BEST tools for the technician to use to identify the correct network run to troubleshoot? (Choose two.) He just needs to first of all identify. That is Tone Generator and Probe Then he will start troubleshooting C and F

The true answer would be Cable Tester and Probe & Tone Generator. Makes absolutely no sense why they would split Probe and Tone Generator into two separate answers when it is one tool.

B. Cable Tester and F. Probe confirmed from Flashcards | Quizlet review...

The question is: "Which of the following are the BEST tools for the technician to use to IDENTIFY the correct network run to troubleshoot?" If identification of the cable is all that's needed and not figuring out if its punched down correctly or not, why wouldn't it be C and F?

Can you explain why?
