Free CompTIA Network+ N10-009 Practice Question

A cable tester is designed to test the connectivity and signal integrity of network cables. It can diagnose a variety of issues such as breaks or shorts in the cable, ensuring that the physical transmission media is capable of carrying the network signal properly. A toner is typically used to locate a specific cable within a bundle and does not test for signal integrity. A Wi-Fi analyzer and a visual fault locator are not suitable for testing Ethernet cables as they are used for wireless signal analysis and detecting breaks in fiber optic cables, respectively.
