Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 5mins
Which network topology has a central device whose failure would stop the entire network from functioning?
Mesh topology
Bus topology
Star topology
Ring topology
. In a ring network, how does data travel from one computer to another?
Randomly between devices
Directly to the target device
Sequentially around the ring in one or both direction
Via a central hub
Which scenario is most suitable for using a ring network topology?
Home networking setups
Corporate office LANs
Wireless networks
Network backbones such as Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs)
Which cable type is most commonly used for short-range connections within LANs?
Fiber optic cable
Coaxial cable
Twisted pair cable
HDMI cable
Which twisted pair cable type does not have shielding and is widely used in Ethernet networks?
STP (Shielded Twisted Pair)
UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
Fiber optic cable
Coaxial cable
What is a major drawback of using coaxial cables in networks?
Can only transmit over short distances
Very expensive to install
Bulky and inflexible, making installation harder
Not compatible with Ethernet standards
What is the maximum recommended length for Cat5e or Cat6 cables in a LAN to prevent signal loss?
15 meters
10 meters
100 meters
500 meters
Which type of cable transmits data as light using glass or plastic fibers?
Twisted pair cable
Fiber optic cable
Coaxial cable
HDMI cable
Which cable type is highly affected by electromagnetic interference and may need shielding?
Fiber optic cable
Coaxial cable
Twisted pair cable
HDMI cable
What distinguishes single-mode fiber from multi-mode fiber?
Multi-mode is for long distances, single-mode for short distances
Single-mode has a smaller core, allowing longer distance transmission
Single-mode is cheaper than multi-mode
Multi-mode uses light signals, single-mode uses electrical signals
