Question

Two network switches at different locations are connected via fiber-optic cable at a distance of 10 miles (16 km). The duplex fiber-optic patch cord between the patch panel and switch is accidentally pinched, stopping connectivity between the two switches. A network technician replaces the broken cable with a new, single-mode patch cord. However, connectivity between both switches is still down and the link lights are still off. Which of the following actions should the technician perform first?

Options

  • AReplace the fiber-optic transceiver in the switch
  • BLog in to the switch to shut down and re-enable the switchport
  • CTranspose the two fiber connectors at one end of the new patch cord
  • DSwap the single-mode fiber patch cord with a multimode fiber patch cord
