The host will discard any frames with unrecognized destination MAC addresses. Switch0 uses port Fa0/1 to send frames to the host with IP address 10.1.1.5. Attenuation refers to the loss of signal strength as distance increases over a cable. UTP cables that can connect the devices shown are straight-through cables. Fiber is preferable to copper cabling for interconnecting buildings due to its greater distances per cable run, greater bandwidth potential, and limited susceptibility to EMI/RFI.

13 Which statement is true about the CSMA/CD access method that is used in Ethernet?
A jamming signal causes only devices that caused the collision to execute a backoff algorithm. When a device hears a carrier signal and transmits, a collision cannot occur. All network devices must listen before transmitting. Devices involved in a collision get priority to transmit after the backoff period.
14 What type of communication rule would best describe CSMA/CD?
flow control message encoding access method message encapsulation
15 Which statement describes an extended star topology?
End devices are connected together by a bus and each bus connects to a central intermediate device. All end and intermediate devices are connected in a chain to each other. Each end system is connected to its respective neighbor via an intermediate device. End devices connect to a central intermediate device, which in turn connects to other central intermediate devices.
16 In addition to the cable length, what two factors could interfere with the communication carried over UTP cables? (Choose two.)
size of the network

18 With the use of unshielded twisted-pair copper wire in a network, what causes crosstalk within the cable pairs?
the collision caused by two nodes trying to use the media simultaneously the reflection of the electrical wave back from the far end of the cable the magnetic field around the adjacent pairs of wire the use of braided wire to shield the adjacent wire pairs
19 What is a primary role of the Physical layer in transmitting data on the network?
provide physical addressing to the devices
control data access to the media create the signals that represent the bits in each frame on to the media determine the path packets take through the network
20 What are two characteristics of fiber-optic cable? (Choose two.)
It is not affected by EMI or RFI. It combines the technique of cancellation, shielding, and twisting to protect data. It typically contains 4 pairs of fiber-optic wires. Each pair of cables is wrapped in metallic foil. It is more expensive than UTP cabling is.

31 A network administrator is connecting two modern switches using a straight-through cable. The switches are new and have never been configured. Which three statements are correct about the final result of the connection? (Choose three.)
The link between the switches will work at the fastest speed that is supported by both switches. The auto-MDIX feature will configure the interfaces eliminating the need for a crossover cable. If both switches support different speeds, they will each work at their own fastest speed. The connection will not be possible unless the administrator changes the cable to a crossover cable. The duplex capability has to be manually configured because it cannot be negotiated. The link between switches will work as full-duplex.
