CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1201) — Question 91

A user would like to connect a laptop to a monitor, keyboard, and mouse when in the office. The user prefers to use as few cables as possible. Which of the following would best achieve that goal?

Answer options

• A. Bluetooth
• B. Managed switch
• C. Docking station
• D. Near-field communication

Correct answer: C

Explanation

A docking station allows multiple peripherals to connect to a laptop using a single cable, thereby reducing clutter. Bluetooth and Near-field communication are wireless technologies but may not support all devices simultaneously, while a managed switch is primarily used for network management, not peripheral connectivity.
