ITN 101 INFRASTRUCTURE AND DOCUMENTATION: TEST
QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ANSWERS
1) What is the Punchdown Tool? -- Answer ✔✔ used to insert twisted-pair wire into
receptors in a punchdown block to complete a circuit (Ethernet cable)
2) What is the 110 Block? -- Answer ✔✔ A type of punchdown block designed to
terminate Cat 5 or better twisted-pair wires and typically used to handle data
connections rather than telephone connections
3) What is Intermediate Distribution Frame (IDF)? -- Answer ✔✔ An intermediate
connection between the Main Distribution Frame (MDF) and end-user equipment on
each floor and in each building
4) What is the practical use definition of Intermediate Distribution Frame (IDF)? --
Answer ✔✔ the racks holding the network equipment or to the room that houses
both the racks and the equipment
5) How many Main Distribution Frame (MDF) can there be on a campus? -- Answer
✔✔ one
, 6) How many Intermediate Distribution Frame (IDF) can there be on a campus? --
Answer ✔✔ Many as long as it connects back to the Main Distribution Frame
7) What does the Work Area contain? -- Answer ✔✔ workstations, printers, and
other networked devices, and all the patch cables, wall jacks, and horizontal cabling
8) What is the ANSI/TIA standard for a wall jack to have? -- Answer ✔✔ at least one
voice and one data outlet
9) How is Rack Height measured? -- Answer ✔✔ Uses Rack Units (RU) with the
standard being 42U (about 6ft)
10) What is the standard Rack Width? -- Answer ✔✔ 19 inches
11) What are the 3 types of cabling? -- Answer ✔✔ Patch, Horizontal, Backbone
12) What is a Patch Cable? -- Answer ✔✔ Short length of cabling (between 3 to 25 feet)
with connectors at both ends
13) What is Horizontal Cabling? -- Answer ✔✔ Connects workstations to closet data
room and to switches housed in the room. The maximum distance of cable is 100
meters (90 from network device to data room while 10 to connect the wall jack)
14) What is Backbone Cabling? -- Answer ✔✔ Provide interconnection between the
Entrance Facility (EF) and the Main Distribution Facility (MDF). A component of the
