Which cable type would be used to connect a router to a switch?
A. Straight-through
B. Crossover
C. Rollover
D. None of the above
Solution
A is correct. Switches and routers have different pinouts; therefore, a straight-through cable should be used.
B, C, and D are incorrect. B is incorrect because a crossover cable will not work between two devices of different pinouts. C is incorrect because rollover cables are used between a PC and a router/switch console port. D is incorrect.
