CompTIA Network+ (N10-009) — Question 67

A network administrator needs to connect two network closets that are 492ft (150m) away from each other. Which of the following cable types should the administrator install between the closets?

Answer options

• A. Single-mode fiber
• B. Coaxial
• C. DAC
• D. STP

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Single-mode fiber is the best choice for long-distance connections, such as the 492 feet between the closets. Coaxial and DAC are not suited for such distances, and STP, while providing shielding against interference, does not support the distance required in this scenario.
