200-301 Question #1324: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Submitted by ngozi_ng· Mar 30, 2026Network Infrastructure / Cabling and Physical Layer - Understanding the differences between single-mode and multimode fiber optic cable types, including their physical characteristics, light transmission methods, and performance over distance. (Note: The question title references IPv6 address types, but the content clearly pertains to fiber optic cable characteristics, suggesting a possible question formatting error in the source material.)

Question

Drag and Drop Question Drag and drop the characteristic from the left onto the IPv6 address type on the right. Answer:

Explanation

The question appears to involve matching fiber optic cable characteristics to cable types (likely Multimode and Single-mode fiber). Multimode fiber uses multiple wavelengths of light and has increased attenuation over long distances due to modal dispersion, while Single-mode fiber has a core diameter of 9 microns and uses a single wavelength of light, allowing signals to travel farther with less attenuation. The correct arrangement pairs multimode characteristics (multiple wavelengths, increased attenuation) with multimode fiber, and single-mode characteristics (9-micron core, single wavelength) with single-mode fiber.
