Each answer lists two types of devices used in a 100BASE-T network. If these devices were connected with UTP Ethernet cables, which pairs of devices would require a straight-through cable? (Choose three answers.)
- PC and router
- PC and switch
- Hub and switch
- Router and hub
- Wireless access point (Ethernet port) and switch
Explanation: Routers, wireless access point Ethernet ports, and PC NICs all send using pins 1 and 2, whereas hubs and LAN switches transmit on pins 3 and 6. Straightthrough cables connect devices that use opposite pin pairs for sending, because the cable does not need to cross the pairs.
