CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1201) — Question 154

A technician is troubleshooting an HDMI over Ethernet solution. The network link lights on the transmitter and receiver are both active. The TV that is connected to the receiver unit is getting audio, but video is intermittently flashing. Which of the following should the technician check next to find the source of the issue?

Answer options

• A. HDMI signal source
• B. PoE power
• C. Firmware on TV
• D. Network cable termination

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because improper termination of the network cable can lead to signal degradation, which may result in the intermittent video issue. The other options are less likely to be the source of the problem since the audio is functioning properly, indicating that the HDMI signal source and PoE power are likely working as expected.
