CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 410

Which of the following would provide power to an access point?

Answer options

• A. POE injector
• B. Switch
• C. Repeater
• D. Modern

Correct answer: A

Explanation

A POE injector is specifically designed to provide both power and data to devices like access points over Ethernet cables. A Switch can also provide power if it supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), but it is not guaranteed in every scenario. A Repeater is used to extend the range of a network but does not supply power, and a Modern is not relevant to providing power to access points.
