Current Update!! Instant Download Pdf 1. What is one reason why broadband cable operators install fiber-optic cable in stages instead of changing the infrastructure all at once? - Correct Answer: Changing the infrastructure all at once would cause too many service disruptions. 2. What is the difference between the fiber-to-the-node (FTTN) and fiber-to-the-curb (FTTC) topologies? - Correct Answer: An FTTC is allowed a smaller number of RF amplifiers between the optical fiber and the customer premises. 3. Which of these components is used in a passive optical network (PON)? - Correct Answer: Optical splitters. 4. Which type of star topology used in a passive optical network (PON) places the PON splitters into fiber access terminal (FAT) located deep in the network and closer to the customer premises than the centralized split? - Correct Answer: Distributed star. 5. Which element of a passive optical network (PON) uses a Bragg grating filter? - Correct Answer: Optical line terminal (OLT). 6. Which element of a passive optical network (PON) uses patch panels? - Correct Answer: Optical distribution network (ODN). 7. What is it about radio frequency over glass (RFoG) that made broadband cable operators envision using it to make a seamless transition from the legacy hybrid fiber/coax (HFC) architecture over to a gigabit-capable passive optical network (GPON) or Ethernet passive optical network (EPON)? - Correct Answer: RFoG can operate in parallel with GPON or EPON, which eliminates the need for any downtime during the transition. 8. How are optical splitters used in the forward path? - Correct Answer: In the forward path, optical splitters are used as passive branching devices that divide an optical signal across multiple output fibers. 9. Which of the following describes a fiber pigtail? - Correct Answer: Fiber-optic cable with pre-connectorized ends. 10. Heat shrink tubing is installed over the fusion-splice to strengthen and protect it. When should the heat shrink be installed on the fiber? - Correct Answer: Before stripping the plastic coating from the fiber. 11. Which of the following are statements of true axioms? - Correct Answer: When A = C and B = C, then A = B because both are equal to C, which supports the axiom: Quantities equal to the same quantity are equal to each other. 12. Simplify and solve the equation: If E = IR then I = ? - Correct Answer: E/R 13. The square of 7 = - Correct Answer: 49 14. The square root of 81 = - Correct Answer: 9 15. 0.00004 = ______ x 10 to the power of ______. - Correct Answer: 4, -5

1. What is one reason why broadband cable operators install fiber-optic cable in stages
instead of changing the infrastructure all at once? - Correct Answer: Changing the
infrastructure all at once would cause too many service disruptions.



2. What is the difference between the fiber-to-the-node (FTTN) and fiber-to-the-curb
(FTTC) topologies? - Correct Answer: An FTTC is allowed a smaller number of RF
amplifiers between the optical fiber and the customer premises.



3. Which of these components is used in a passive optical network (PON)? - Correct
Answer: Optical splitters.



4. Which type of star topology used in a passive optical network (PON) places the PON
splitters into fiber access terminal (FAT) located deep in the network and closer to the
customer premises than the centralized split? - Correct Answer: Distributed star.



5. Which element of a passive optical network (PON) uses a Bragg grating filter? -
Correct Answer: Optical line terminal (OLT).



6. Which element of a passive optical network (PON) uses patch panels? - Correct
Answer: Optical distribution network (ODN).

,7. What is it about radio frequency over glass (RFoG) that made broadband cable operators
envision using it to make a seamless transition from the legacy hybrid fiber/coax (HFC)
architecture over to a gigabit-capable passive optical network (GPON) or Ethernet
passive optical network (EPON)? - Correct Answer: RFoG can operate in parallel with
GPON or EPON, which eliminates the need for any downtime during the transition.



8. How are optical splitters used in the forward path? - Correct Answer: In the forward
path, optical splitters are used as passive branching devices that divide an optical signal
across multiple output fibers.



9. Which of the following describes a fiber pigtail? - Correct Answer: Fiber-optic cable
with pre-connectorized ends.



10. Heat shrink tubing is installed over the fusion-splice to strengthen and protect it. When
should the heat shrink be installed on the fiber? - Correct Answer: Before stripping
the plastic coating from the fiber.



11. Which of the following are statements of true axioms? - Correct Answer: When A = C
and B = C, then A = B because both are equal to C, which supports the axiom: Quantities
equal to the same quantity are equal to each other.



12. Simplify and solve the equation: If E = IR then I = ? - Correct Answer: E/R



13. The square of 7 = - Correct Answer: 49



14. The square root of 81 = - Correct Answer: 9



15. 0.00004 = ______ x 10 to the power of ______. - Correct Answer: 4, -5

, 16. (75 x 10 to the power of 3) + (25 x 10 to the power of 4) = - Correct Answer: 32.5 x
10 to the power of 4



17. 10 to the power of -3 has a metric prefix of ______. - Correct Answer: Milli



18. (480 x 10 to the power of -5) divided by (60 x 10 to the power of -3) = - Correct
Answer: 8 x 10 to the power of -2



19. (250 x 10 to the power of -6) - (7 x 10 to the power of -5) = - Correct Answer: 180 x
10 to the power of -6



20. (75 × 103) + (25 × 104) = - Correct Answer: (*Wrong) 100 × 10^3



21. (-25) + (42) + (-62) + (20) = - Correct Answer: -25



22. (17) x (-19) = - Correct Answer: -323



23. (-17) - (-34) = - Correct Answer: 17



24. -49/-7 = - Correct Answer: 7



25. (20) / (-4) + (-2) x (-10) - (-2) x (7) = - Correct Answer: 29
