CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 285
A technician is connecting a Cat 6 Ethernet cable to a device that only has LC ports. Which of the following will the technician MOST likely use to accomplish this task?
Answer options
- A. A bridge
- B. A media converter
- C. A repeater
- D. A router
Correct answer: B
Explanation
