Q

A small ISP has hired a new technician. Joe, the new technician, is being trained to configure customers’ home networks. The training instructor gives the technician a starter kit with cables, cable ends, and other network equipment and asks him to build a working network. The computer should be connected to have Internet connectivity and the phone should be connected to have dial tone.

Instructions: Use the appropriate cables, cable ends, tools and equipment to configure the network and connect all components accordingly. When you have completed the simulation, please select the Done button to submit. Once the simulation is submitted, please select the Next button to continue.

Step 1

X CAB (4 colors: yellow, purple / indigo, teal, red)

Y CAB (brown with metal tip) F-Connector

Z CAB (8 colors: red, rd/white, teal, teal/white, purple / indigo, purple / indigo / white, yellow, yellow / white)

RJ-11
RJ-45
F-Connector

Step 2

X CAB (4 colors: yellow, purple / indigo, teal, red)

Y CAB (brown with metal tip)

Z CAB (8 colors: red, red/white, teal, teal/white, purple / indigo, purple / indigo / white, yellow, yellow / white)

RJ-11
RJ-45
F-Connector

A

Step 1

X CAB (4 colors: yellow, purple / indigo, teal, red) = RJ-11

Y CAB (brown with metal tip) F-Connector

Z CAB (8 colors: red, rd/white, teal, teal/white, purple / indigo, purple / indigo / white, yellow, yellow / white) = RJ-45

RJ-11
RJ-45
F-Connector

Step 2

X CAB (4 colors: yellow, purple / indigo, teal, red) = RJ-11 & red/gold crimp

Y CAB (brown with metal tip) = F-connector & red/gold crimp

Z CAB (8 colors: red, red/white, teal, teal/white, purple / indigo, purple / indigo / white, yellow, yellow / white) = RJ-45 & flat-crimper for RJ-11 & RJ-45

RJ-11
RJ-45
F-Connector

Step 3

Home PC (ethernet port) [gets a Z CAB from SOHO VoIP router]
SOHO VoIP Router (VoIP, LAN 1-4, WAN) [X CAB to Home Phone; Z CAB LAN to Home PC; Z CAB WAN to Cable Modem]
Home Phone (RJ-11 jack) [gets the X CAB from SOHO VoIP]
Wall ISP Service Outlet (RG-59 coaxial) [Y CAB to Cable Modem]
Cable Modem (ethernet port) [gets Y CAB to Cable Modem]
