Exam 220-1001 topic 1 question 421 discussion

"Which of the following tools should the technician use to finish installing the new network jack?" From this We are going to use a "network jack" or "ethernet wall socket" and for it we need a Punch down tool. "Crimper" is used when you are making an ethernet cable, with CAT 6 cable and RJ45 connector.

The same question on this site was asked earlier and the answer was Crimper.... I swear this whole CompTIA this is a scam.

A network drop is a connection point in a network. The term generally refers to a local area network (LAN). Network drops are typically wall outlets with an Ethernet jack (RJ45) that a computer or other network device, including a phone, printer, etc. can plug into. The keyword here is 'new jack'. It has to be Crimper - C. Punchdown tools are used at patch panels to connect the Ethernet cables to 110 blocks without using RJ45 Jack, just wires.

Punchdown Tool to connect the patchpanel and the Wall network jack. The question is not to end a cable with a RJ45-Plug

I think it's D - punchdown tool

this question is dumb since both is possible, both the wall and clear end are called a jack. I'm guessing the crimp is the answer because it can directly connect to the PC without a patch. Realistically you would put the wall jack and a plate and terminate it with a punch down tool to make it look nice.

The answer is C. The question states a new computer, 1 each. So there only needs to be one line run and doesn't need to be terminated in a patch panel.

the answer is D punch down tool. crimpers are used to terminate ethernet cable ends

the answer is D. Punchdown tool
