CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 283

A network technician is helping to install 50 Cat6a drops from users' computers into an IDF. Which of the following is the termination point at the IDF?

Answer options

• A. A breakout box
• B. A 66 block
• C. A 110 block
• D. A patch panel

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, a 110 block, which is specifically designed for terminating twisted-pair cables like Cat6a. A breakout box (A) is not typically used for structured cabling, a 66 block (B) is an older standard primarily for voice applications, and a patch panel (D) is used for organizing and managing cable connections rather than for direct terminations.
