You are moving a client to a new location within an Ethernet network. Previous to the move, the client system did not have difficulty accessing the network.

During the relocation, you attach patch cables from the client system to the wall jack and from the patch panel to the switch. Once connected, you do not get a link light on the network card or the switch. You swap out the cable running between the patch panel and the switch with a known good one, but you still cannot connect.

Which of the following might you suspect is the problem?

answer

Failed switch

Server software configuration error

Faulty termination

Failed network card
