Explanation / Answer

Solution:-

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 22

The correct answer is option (d) NFPA

NFPA stands for National fire protection association which developed the national electrical code.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 23

The correct answer is option (c) Coaxial

The coaxial cable less used compare to UTP, STP and Fiber. Mostly network cabling coaxial cable is replaced by UTP and Fiber.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 24

The correct answer is option (b) follow local building codes

This option is not related to the cable installation quality considerations.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 25

The correct answer is option (b) 4

There are 4 pairs in UTP cable. Total 8 cables are twisted in a color coding.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 26

The correct answer is option (c) Crossover

The crossover cable is used to connect directly two same equipments.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 27

The correct answer is option (c) Hub

To create a star topology Hub can be used. It simply connects the PC's of a network and it is placed in the center.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 28

The correct answer is option (b) Network interface card

NIC is stands for network interface card or network interface controller.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 29

The correct answer is option (c) to increase LAN performance

The hub simply connects the end systems and distribute the link bandwidth to equally to all. Switch overcome this problem and creates a virtual circuit between source and destination and let them use dedicated bandwidth so LAN performance is increased.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 30

The correct answer is option (d) IPX

IPX is not used at MAC layer, it is a network layer protocol. So IPX is not a MAC layer protocol.
