What is the default range of physical ports for downlinks on Orchestrator MHO-140?
The correct answer is B. 27 - 47. On the MHO-140, physical ports are divided between uplink and downlink roles, with downlinks assigned to the default range of ports 27–47, reflecting a deliberate separation where lower-numbered ports serve as uplinks or reserved interfaces.

Explanation
On the MHO-140, physical ports are divided between uplink and downlink roles, with downlinks assigned to the default range of ports 27–47, reflecting a deliberate separation where lower-numbered ports serve as uplinks or reserved interfaces.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A (25–47): Starts two ports too early - ports 25 and 26 fall outside the downlink range by default.
- C (1–48): This spans the entire port set, confusing the full physical range with the downlink-specific range; uplinks occupy the lower-numbered ports.
- D (1–25): This is the opposite - lower-numbered ports are associated with uplinks, not downlinks.
Memory tip: Think "27 down" - downlinks begin at 27, because the first 26 ports are "up top" handling uplink duties. The asymmetry (27 start, 47 end) is the key detail to lock in.
