Question

Match List-I with List-II. List-I: A. Modem, B. Ethernet card, C. Repeater, D. Router. List-II: I. An analog device that regenerates the signals on the cables to which it is connected. II. A device used for conversion between electric signals and digital bits. III. A network device that can receive the data, analyse it and transmit it to other networks. IV. A network adaptor used to set up a wired network.

• A. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
• B. A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I
• C. A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
• D. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Hint:

Modem converts signals, Ethernet card connects to wired network, repeater regenerates signals, and router forwards data between networks.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

A modem is used for modulation and demodulation. It converts digital signals into signals suitable for transmission and also converts received signals back into digital form. So: \[ A-II. \] An Ethernet card is a network adaptor. It is used to connect a computer to a wired network. So: \[ B-IV. \] A repeater regenerates weak signals. It is used to extend the distance of communication by strengthening signals. So: \[ C-I. \] A router receives data packets, analyses their destination, and forwards them to other networks. So: \[ D-III. \] Therefore, the correct matching is: \[ A-II,\quad B-IV,\quad C-I,\quad D-III. \] Hence, the correct answer is option (A).
