CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 338

An ISP is providing internet to a retail store and has terminated its point of connection using a standard Cat 6 pin-out. Which of the following terminations should the technician use when running a cable from the ISP's port to the front desk?

Answer options

• A. F-type connector
• B. TIA/EIA-568-B
• C. LC
• D. SC

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, TIA/EIA-568-B, as it specifies the wiring standard necessary for terminating Cat 6 cables. The other options, such as A (F-type connector), C (LC), and D (SC), are different types of connectors or standards that do not apply to the wiring of a standard Ethernet connection.
