RCDD · Question #169

Select the appropriate task to complete the section 2.2 of the work breakdown structure below: 2. Technician 2.1 Install rack 2.2 _________ 2.3 Place fiber 2.4 Terminate fiber 2.5 Test fiber

The correct answer is B. Install connector housing. In a fiber optic installation WBS, tasks must follow a logical physical sequence. Installing connector housing is the necessary step between rack installation and fiber placement.

Why each option

In a fiber optic installation WBS, tasks must follow a logical physical sequence. Installing connector housing is the necessary step between rack installation and fiber placement.

APrepare as-built drawings

As-built drawings are a post-installation documentation deliverable produced after all work is complete, not a mid-sequence field installation task.

BInstall connector housingCorrect

Connector housing must be installed before fiber can be routed and placed, as it provides the physical structure to contain and protect connections. The sequence flows logically: install rack, install connector housing, place fiber, terminate fiber, then test - each step depends on the previous one being complete. Without the housing in place, there is no framework into which the fiber can be placed.

CClean/polish connectors

Cleaning and polishing connectors occurs after termination (step 2.4), making it a later step in the sequence rather than a predecessor to fiber placement.

DSpecify fiber

Specifying fiber is a pre-project design and procurement activity, not a field installation task performed by a technician during physical deployment.
