Scenario: Your school is expanding the computer lab and needs to add more wired ports for new computers, ensuring data is sent efficiently only to the correct computer. Which device should the technician install?

Scenario: You need to attach a new RJ-45 connector to a prepared cable. Which tool is necessary to mechanically secure (join) the metal pins of the connector to the wires inside?

Scenario: The Wi‑Fi signal is too weak in your bedroom, which is far from the router. You install a device that plugs into an outlet to take the weak signal and make it strong again for a wider range. Which device are you using?

Scenario: A new client computer needs to be set up in the office. The computer is connected to a network port on the wall. The wall port is actually a face plate with a snap‑in component that holds the RJ‑45 jack. What is this component called?
