WGU D413 COMPREHENSIVE EXAM
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
GRADED A+
◉ 10Base5
Answer: First IEEE 802.3 classification developed for Ethernet.
(2)
◉ adaptive cut-through
Answer: Frame-forwarding technique that operates as cut-
through until an unaccept-able number of corrupt frames are
detected. (11)
◉ ANT+
Answer: Function that can be added to base ANT protocols that
allows for interoperability; pronounced ant plus. (4)
◉ asynchronous transfer mode (ATM)
Answer: Protocol designed especially for transmitting data, voice,
and video. (1)
◉ asynchronous transmission
, Answer: Data transmission method in which no reference signal is
present. (5)
◉ attenuation
Answer: Loss of signal strength. (1)
◉ Automatic Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
Answer: Standard for controlling the power options for computer
hardware devices. (9)
◉ automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (Auto-MDIX)
Answer: Electronic chip technology incorpo-rated into Gigabit
Ethernet devices to automatically reassign pin func-tions and
eliminate the need for a crossover cable. (2)
◉ AWG rating
Answer: Describes the size of a conductor's diameter. (2)
◉ backplane
Answer: Simple motherboard designed with minimal
components. (9)
◉ Bandwidth Allocation Protocol (BAP)
Answer: Allows the number of lines used by MLPPP to change on
demand. (14)
