What’s the solution for pc5?

Shelbyy

I don't have idea too whats the solution for PC5 maybe replace cable?

PC 5 - Rollover cable I think it should be no problem

Also, the cable that is "short" should be counted as OPEN not a short

I passed my exam on 26/03/2024. I can confirm that this simulation still applies, and my exam had 5 simulations in total. For this simulation, everything was word for word, with no changes in values, wording, etc. @Shelbyy answer can be used, but for the PC5, I used "replace cable" as the solution.

PC4 has incorrect VLAN as well. Needs to be on VLAN 10

comeragh

Server1 - no problem PC1 - no problem PC2 - open cable detected/replace cable PC3 - no problem PC4 - wrong vlan/change vlan assignment PC5 - connector on backward/replace cable (no other solution seems valid here) PC6 - no problem

This one was on my exam again yesterday 4/23/24 and I passed thanks to all the contributors here. I followed what people said about replacing the cable on pc 5 too.

AABrewster

Just passed the exam. This was on it. In the actual exam, there is no solution appropriate for PC5 either.

C0tt0nking

I just passed as well an choose the solution to replace cable on pc5

Molongo

Yeah I think that is the only reasonable solution considering you must pick one. Replace the cable with one that doesn't have faulty connectors.

Mdjohn

HI, did u choose community answers most of the time as i found examtopic intentionally put wrong answers for most of the questions.

server1 - no problem PC 1- No problem pc2- open cable detected - replace cable pc 3 - no problem pc4 wrong VLAN - Chang vlan assignment pc5 - connector on backward - change cable pc6 - No problem

PC5 is using a Rollover cable but thats not an option.

Flarga

To anyone that may be confused by PC 5 using what looks like a rollover cable, I completely understand. I was in the same boat and went ahead to research. I found that when a connector is placed on backwards, it can cause the pinout to be completely reversed, as seen in this PBQ. So to confirm, you should 100% choose "Connector on backwards" for PC 5, and replace the cable as a result.

[Removed]

I think PC5 is crossover cable. Because it's to connect computers directly. It may be connected to PC4.

Lamboryota

is the cable too long if it is 90m?

mkapp98

https://support.8x8.com/devices-accessories/network-devices/SoHo_Networking_Design_Best_Practices according to this I'm assuming anything over 100m

Brenner22

no 100 M is the max length

When it comes to cross over, remember that it is not 568A one side and 568B other side. There is also cross of blue and brown pairs. I mean if it is a different question.
