  1. VLAN
  2. Lease
  3. Reservation
  4. Exclusion

A user is having issues when charging a device with a Lightning cable. The cable is not recognized when it is plugged into the device. This issue is usually resolved by flipping the cable over. This issue does not occur with other devices of the same type. Which of the following would most likely cause the issue?

  1. The device needs to be restarted.
  2. The battery may be swelling and needs inspection.
  3. The cable is failing and needs to be replaced.
  4. The charging port is dirty or damaged

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Lightning connectors have contacts on both faces to allow full reversibility. If a cable only works in one orientation, while other cables work fine on the same device, the most likely culprit is worn or damaged contacts in that cable. Replacing the cable resolves the issue.

  1. DNS
  2. Mail
  3. Print
  4. Syslog

A technician observes slow startup times on a laptop. Which of the following is most likely causing the issue?

  1. HDD
  2. RAM
  3. NIC
  4. BIOS

Answer(s): A

A mechanical hard drive’s spin-up and seek times are the primary bottleneck during boot, swapping to an SSD dramatically reduces startup delays.



A customer reports their tablet was recently dropped on the ground. The tablet has a small crack in one corner of the display, and it does not charge when plugged in. Which of the following should a technician do first?

  1. Perform a hard restart.
  2. Replace the battery.
  3. Inspect the USB-C port for damage.
  4. Run diagnostics on the digitizer.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Since the tablet was dropped and now won’t charge, the most likely culprit is a bent or broken charging port.
Verifying physical damage to the USB-C connector before replacing components or running software diagnostics prevents unnecessary work and pinpoints the root cause.
