Question 637

After running a Cat 8 cable using passthrough plugs, an electrician notices that connected cables are experiencing a lot of cross talk. Which of the following troubleshooting steps should the electrician take first?

    Correct Answer: A

    When experiencing a lot of cross talk in connected Cat 8 cables, the first troubleshooting step should be to inspect the connectors for any wires that are touching or exposed. Cross talk is often the result of improper termination, exposed wires, or wires not being properly separated within the connectors. Ensuring the connectors are properly wired and there is no physical contact between wires is critical to reduce cross talk issues in network cabling.
