Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

The technician should replace the patch cable that connects the desktop to the network switch or outlet. The patch cable may be damaged or incompatible with the upgraded network infrastructure, which can cause slow network speeds. According to the CompTIA Core1 objectives, one of the common symptoms of a bad cable is slow transfer speeds. A research paper on network performance also states that cable quality and length can affect network speed.
