A security engineer is trying to connect cameras to a 12-port PoE switch, but only eight cameras turn on. Which of the following should the engineer check first?

A.
Ethernet cable type
Answers
A.
Ethernet cable type
B.
Voltage
Answers
B.
Voltage
C.
Transceiver compatibility
Answers
C.
Transceiver compatibility
D.
DHCP addressing
Answers
D.
DHCP addressing
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The most likely reason why only eight cameras turn on is that the PoE switch does not have enough power budget to supply all 12 cameras. The engineer should check the voltage and wattage ratings of the PoE switch and the cameras, and make sure they are compatible and sufficient. The Ethernet cable type, transceiver compatibility, and DHCP addressing are less likely to cause this problem, as they would affect the data transmission rather than the power delivery.
