CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 728

A company is undergoing expansion but does not have sufficient rack space in its data center. Which of the following would be best to allow the company to host its new equipment without major investment in facilities?

Answer options

• A. Using a colocation service
• B. Using available rack space in branch offices
• C. Using a flat network topology
• D. Reorganizing the network rack and installing top-of-rack switching

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as utilizing a colocation service provides a flexible and cost-effective way to host additional equipment without the need for significant capital expenditures on physical infrastructure. Options B, C, and D do not adequately address the issue of limited rack space in the data center and may not provide a viable long-term solution for expansion.
