The answer to this question is E. A straight-through is referring to a cable that has their own pin assignments on each cable’s end. An example is Pin 1 should be connected to Pin 1 on the other end, and so on. This cable is important so the host can be connected to a client. This will allow computers, printers, and other devices to be able to connect to a router.
The pins must be connected to their respective connector for the connection to be successful. If these cables are not placed in their correct order, one should rearrange them and take a look to connect them in their rightful place.
To specify when we use crossover cable or straight-through cable, we should remember:
Group 1: Router, Host, Server
Group 2: Hub, Switch
One device in group 1 + One device in group 2: use straight-through cable
Two devices in the same group: use crossover cable
In this case we can use straight-through cable to connect a switch to a router -> C is correct.
