• Question 741:

  A salesperson is unable to use a personal device to access emails and calendar features at a client site but was able to use the device while at the office.

  Which of the following policies has been enforced on the salesperson's mobile device?

  A. MOW
  B. MAN
  C. MFA
  D. MAM
  D. MAM

  ---

  Explanation

  Mobile Application Management (MAM) enforces policies restricting access to apps and services based on location, ensuring security at external sites.

  Why Not A (MOW): "Mobile Only Workplace" (MOW) is not a recognized term in this context.

  Why Not B (MAN): Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) is unrelated to mobile device policies.

  Why Not C (MFA): Multi-Factor Authentication secures user accounts but does not enforce app restrictions.

  Core 2 (220-1102), Section 2.7, mobile device security policies.

• Question 742:

  A technician is investigating the output shown on a monitor. The output is clear, but it has a pink hue. The technician has replaced the video card and updated the graphics drivers. Which of the following would be the MOST likely cause?

  A. Physical cabling issues
  B. Burned-out bulb
  C. Display burn-in
  D. Incorrect data source
  A. Physical cabling issues

  ---

  Explanation

  The pink hue is most likely caused by physical cabling issues the output on a monitor is clear but has a pink hue, it could be due to an issue with the physical cabling connecting the monitor to the computer. The video signal may be degraded or distorted due to a damaged or loose cable. The technician should check and replace the cable if necessary to resolve the issue.

• Question 743:

  A. SATA drive connections
  B. Liquid cooling
  C. Modular power supply
  D. Wireless NIC

• Question 745:

  A technician verifies the slow boot time and slow OS performance of a tower server with a RAID 5 on a PCIe RAID card that does not support hot swapping. Which of the following steps should the technician take NEXT to verify RAID health?

  A. Verify S.M.A.R.T. operation on the RAID card.
  B. Replace the failed drive while users are connected
  C. Physically clean the HDDs and connectors.
  D. Shut down the server and check the RAID controller's status.
  D. Shut down the server and check the RAID controller's status.

  ---

  Explanation

  Since the RAID card does not support hot swapping, the technician needs to shut down the server and check the RAID controller's status to verify RAID health. S.M.A.R.T. is a feature of hard drives, not RAID cards. Replacing the failed drive while users are connected could cause data loss or corruption. Physically cleaning the HDDs and connectors is unlikely to solve the slow boot time and performance issues.

• Question 746:

  A user calls the help desk about a 4K monitor that will not output an image from a desktop. The monitor was working previously but now shows a black screen with a message stating a signal is not detected. The desktop is connected via HDMI, and the monitor has an empty DVI port. Which of the following steps should the technician perform first? (Select two).

  A. Check the version of the HDMI cable.
  B. Check the input source.
  C. Set up the desktop for DVI.
  D. Replace the HDMI cable.
  E. Install OS updates.
  F. Initiate a system restore.
  A. Check the version of the HDMI cable.
  B. Check the input source.

  ---

  Explanation

  The first steps that the technician should perform are A. Check the version of the HDMI cable and

  B. Check the input source.

  A possible cause of the problem is that the HDMI cable is not compatible with the 4K resolution of the monitor. HDMI cables have different versions that support different features and bandwidths. For example, HDMI 1.4 supports up to 4K at 30 Hz, while HDMI 2.0 supports up to 4K at 60 Hz1. The technician should check the version of the HDMI cable and make sure it matches the specifications of the monitor and the desktop. Another possible cause of the problem is that the monitor is not set to the correct input source. The input source is the option that allows the monitor to switch between different video signals from different ports, such as HDMI, DVI, VGA, or DisplayPort2. The technician should check the input source and make sure it is set to HDMI, since that is how the desktop is connected to the monitor. The input source can usually be changed using the buttons or menu on the monitor itself2.

• Question 750:

  A laptop is experiencing slow performance writing data. Which of the following is the best component for a technician to upgrade to fix the issue?

  A. RAM
  B. HDD
  C. TPM
  D. CPU
  B. HDD

  ---

  Explanation

  The best component for a technician to upgrade to fix the issue of slow performance writing data is

  B. HDD. HDD stands for hard disk drive, which is a type of storage device that uses physical disks to store data. HDDs have moving parts that can slow down the read and write operations, especially when the data is fragmented or the disk is full12. A better alternative to HDDs is SSDs, which stands for solid state drives. SSDs use flash memory and do not have any moving parts. SSDs can read and write data faster and use less power, which can improve the performance and battery life of the laptop13. Upgrading to an SSD can provide a significant improvement in performance2. The other components are not as relevant or effective as upgrading the HDD. RAM stands for random access memory, which is a type of memory that stores temporary data for the CPU to process. RAM can affect the overall speed of the laptop, but it does not directly affect the writing performance of the storage device1. TPM stands for trusted platform module, which is a security chip that encrypts and protects data on the laptop. TPM does not affect the performance of the laptop, but rather its security1. CPU stands for central processing unit, which is the main processor of the laptop that executes instructions and calculations. CPU can affect the performance of the laptop, but it is not as easy or cost- effective to upgrade as the HDD1.
