A group of newly hired entry-level network engineers are talking about the network cabling they are going to have to install as a team. What is a characteristic of Ethernet straight-through UTP cable?
- It can only use the T568A standard at both ends of the cable.
- It can be used to connect two network hosts.
- It is Cisco proprietary.
- It is susceptible to interferences from EMI and RFI.
Answers Explanation & Hints: Ethernet straight-through UTP cable is commonly used to interconnect a host to a switch and a switch to a router. It can use one standard (T568A or T568B) at both ends. EMI and RFI signals can distort and corrupt the data signals being carried by copper media.
