• Twisted pair
• Coaxial cable
• fiber optics
• USB

10BASE2 standard

• Thinnet coaxial cable
• thicknet coaxial cable
• UTP
• STP

network system utilizes a home's standard electrical wiring for communication of data using special adapters

• power line

• USB

• Serial/parallel

• fiber

..................................... is more common in high-speed networks. uses metallic shield wrapping to protect the wire from interference.

• UTP
• STP

What are the two kinds of coax cable typically used?

• Thinnet and Thicknet

• Fiber and Twisted Pair

• STP and UTP

• None of the above

OTDR injects light pulses at one end of the fiber being tested and, at the same end, detects light reflected from one or more points in the link.

• True
• False

cables connect a computer with a peripheral device (such as a keyboard or mouse)

• Coaxial cable
• Fiber optics
• twisted pair
• USB

A Straight twisted cable joins two network devices of the same type,

• true
• false

The additional shielding in the STP cable stops electromagnetic interference from leaking out of or into the cable

• true
• false
