Answers
D.
Three DAC 10GbE cables and 3 Ethernet cables
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

Considering the equipment setup with one Out-of-Band Management (OOBM) Ethernet switch and two 10GbE SFP+ Top of Rack (ToR) switches, the consultant should recommend six DAC (Direct Attach Cable) 10GbE cables and three Ethernet cables. The DAC 10GbE cables are suitable for connecting the nodes to the ToR switches to handle high-speed data transfers, while the Ethernet cables are necessary for connections related to management purposes, such as connecting to the OOBM switch for remote management tasks. This recommendation ensures adequate connectivity for both data and management networks.
