[Q145]
** Drop this question . Not important for Network+

[Q146]

** HSTR = High Speed Token Ring
** The faster Token Ring standard among the Token Ring Technology
** It can transmit data up to 100Mbps
** It can use UTP and/or Fiber Optic Cable
** Normal Token Ring Technology usually can use 3 types of cables
(a) UTP/STP (b) Coaxial Cable (c) Fiber Optic


[Q152]

** it operated at 2.45 GHZ ( about 2.4GHZ ) , same frequency range as WLAN
Since it operating at this range , it can cause interference to WLAN
** It is RF ( radio frequency ) signal
** Bluetooth is using FHSS ( frequency hopping spread spectrum )

** CDMA is using DSSS


[Q157]

[Q158]

Drop this question. Beyond Network+


[Q159]
