I had this EXACT PBQ on my 220-1101 exam today. I'm glad I watched this. You have earned a subscriber my friend.
Thank you for the support
Me too.
These 3 pBQ are so useful on exam also I need the 4th question if any one have it please
Informational, however, you would just re-use the crimp tool from the rj-11 on the rj-45. The cable tester has no crimping capabilities.
my thought exactly
He definitely got that wrong
My thoughts, too.
he used the crimper to crimp the r-45 connector in the first step of the video.then on second step you have to use the cable tester to make sure that cable is good.that why you see the cable tester there. i know compTia could throw people off with their PBQs.
@@garylove2836 The new version of the test has a punch down tool, since there are RJ 45 keystone Jacks, instead of the tester (or it could be a different version), so would that be the same thing or would it still be the crimper?
Hey guys so you're not gonna believe this but I took the exam today and passed with a 719 but the very first performance based question in this video @1:54 was actually on the test... The exact same question. I couldn't believe it.
Congratulations
Congratulations bro
Am doing the exam tomorrow core 1 any advice please
@@abdihalim7788 Did you do it ?
You got this wrong, I am sure, you should have put the same crimper you did for the RJ11 to RJ45 and VOIP does not use RJ11...
His PBQ questions are very helpful, I had the same question in real exam. Great job, Thank you for helping and making these videos.
I wish i watched this before taking exam... -_-
also did you had this printer stimulation question? the picture was big printers and you had to drag items? I was so confused about this stimulation ;/
So helpful having the actual hardware to look at for reference! 🙏
Passed my 1101 exam today. Thanks for the videos posted in here and they are really helpful for preparation study.
Great but I believe the cable tester is only used for testing and not crimping.
Exactly
That's what i'm thinking, i believe you can also use the one that he used for f connector for crimping rj45.
Same thought here.
I can confirm after passing 1001 that his answer was wrong and you are right. In my exam, that option wasn't a tester and was a toner probe. Looks like it is just a placeholder for a wrong answer. The correct answer is the same crimper for rj45/11.
@@TomTKK I failed my exam got a 575 but never attempted any of the PBQ questions. Do you think I can score 100 points if I answer all 5 pbq questions.
I failed my exam by a couple questions and really struggled on the simulation question that was number 3 here because the images they used were a bit too abstract and cartoony for me to understand fully. Been hitting the books again and this vid in particular is super helpful as a lot of udemy and youtube courses skip over any simulation help. Gonna take it next week and hopefully ace it this time.
Keep up the good work. You got this
@@srhsaleen Thanks! Good luck on your exam too
@@incongruous4 did you succed?
@@DarkKnight-ro9ld I wanted some more time to work on memorization stuff like port numbers, 802.11 standards, raid stuff and every step of the comptia troubleshooting steps until its on the back of my hand.
Just scheduled it a couple hours ago tho, taking it dec 24 so it might be a nice christmas present to myself or it'll be the worst christmas ever. Will update later with the results.
Also gl to you on your exam! The memorization stuff I listed might end up being helpful for you as that's the only stuff that isn't basic concepts but pure memory content.
@@incongruous4 Some unsolicited advice. Make sure you really look at the exam objectives, also Professor Messer's videos on A+ are very helpful.
Also don't sleep on the acronyms and what they stand for. The exam objectives show them towards the end.
Peace.
Ty so much, I pass my 1001 yesterday.
Just fyi, with your PBQ simulations, I was able to pass the first part of the A+. Thanks a lot.
Congratulations
How do the points work and how many points is each pbq worth. I scored 574 but I never answered any of the pbq I jus went all in on the multiple choice but I'm going to change my revision strategy for my next attempt.
@@ismailakbar6449 I scored 610 and know I missed on the PBQs I have them downpat now
@@thatdudee5344 Oh no worries. I think they are worth more points. If you get atleast 3 right and a few more questions it should be enough to pass.
thank you for the lesson. i am studying for my comptia a plus
This was excellent!! Thank you sir! This is the area that causes me the most anxiety.
great video taking my test next week hopefully i am prepared
Best training aide ever! Very similar to exam.
rj45 will also use the same crimper as rj11.. you gotta reach the question if you are teaching people in practice exams
Im studying to get my A+. Hope to get it soon. Thank you for the video. Learn something new again.
I had this question regarding connection of cables etc on my exam. It was interesting :)
Bro, thank you so much. I just passed! 🙌🏾
Great job!
hey Greg i just want to say congratulations i didnt know you are holding these certifications A+ Nec+ Sec+ your practice exams and PBQs resemble alot of those on the compTia real exams.thanks for sharing and helping me and others that are watching your videos prepare our selfs for the real thing.:)
Thank you, I appreciate your support
@@InformatikLab you welcome.:)
can't crimp with a cable tester
Just passed my core 1. This was my 1st question lol. THANKS A MILLION!!! 👍
Please use the same tool crimp that he used for rj45 or the same one for rj11. thank you
@@najatdami5154 maybe he can't use it... Like he should use one for each other
@@e.j605 Wrong... You use the crimp tool on both 11 and 45 in that, he would have got that wrong.
Wooooow, I just took and pass my Core 1 exam (1101) yesterday and my 1st question was exactly this but with some minor differences. It literally caught me off guard and I was not expecting it.
Congratulations
@@InformatikLab thank you. I do have a question. Will there be a simulations on Core 2 as well? If so where can I find a study materials for it? I want to be better prepared this time because I was not expecting that on my exam. I was just able to make up for it through the questions
@@Troyson04 I don't know if they initiated it now, but back in 2017-2018 when I passed A+ there was no simulations on core2 it was only on core1.
@@InformatikLab copy that. Thank you that really helps. I'm looking to take my second exam in about 30 days from now. After completion, I'm going to start studying up on my Linux and my CCNA certifications. I did land a volunteer Help Desk position and I'm starting that next Monday.
This was on the test :) amazing!
All of your simulation videos for A+ are great - except the crimper for RJ11 and RJ45 is the same tool, not the tester for the RF45. Thank you.
Question. the RJ-45 cable, shouldn't that be used to crimp? I did not see in the instructions for to test the cable. Just asking. Thanks for your vids. Very helpful.
Thank you so much bro I was able to pass 1001 thanks to you!! I owe you so much thank you 🙏 😊
Glad I could help
MY MAN, I LOVE YOU
Thank you sharing all these knowledges for free
My pleasure!
I had a PBQ VERY similar to this on my 220-1101 exam today.
How similar was it? I have 1101 scheduled for Monday and would love a little breakdown of the PBQ's, I feel like the multiple choice I know what they might ask.
Thank you for explaining what the cable colors meant. I watched a video where the guy did not explain that.
i get that some of this stuff Is supposed to be common sense but not everyone is an expert.
Oh boy! uou got the last part of second simulation. U use the same crimper for Rj 11 and rj45
So you do use a crimper for the rj 45 and the rj 11? Bc using the cable tested for the rj 45 doesnt make sense to me
Passed the core 1. I got only the first part. Connectors and tools only.
PBQs; Rj45 and RJ11. The connectors and tools. coaxial cable is replaced with fiber ST.
Printer smudge and paper jam.
Computer lock after a few mins. What is the cause and solution
Config gaming and family pc.
Access point stop working, fix it.
Images; About 12-15 laptop / lcd / mobile images with problems. Select cause "in the drop down" and solution.
why would you use a cable tester to crimp the rj45 connection?
This was VERY helpful thank u! I have been looking for exam example questions or simulations this is great
In the second simulation why the RJ45 use a Tester, this is not making any sense to me, because they ask about the right tool to crimp, a tester doesn't have any crimping thing in here.
Thank you for posting this sir!
Thank you so much sir, I had this exact question confuse me on my first attempt of the 1001
You're welcome
Don't know if anyone can shed some light on the step 2 of this, It's asking about crimping cables but the last thing for the rj45 he showed just looks like a cable tester, not actually crimping?
The first PBQ at 6:09 seems wrong. The question asks the tool to crimp. You crimp the RJ45 with same tool as RJ11. Why did he choose cable tester?
I was about to say that, I never seen that tool and that will be misleading to first timers
VOIP uses a RJ45 connector. It's a standard Ethernet cable.
lol ya hes teaching the wrong shit... VOIP is RJ45
Thank youuuuuuu for your ressources!!
Glad you like them!
Thanks. This was on my exam.
Thank you, friend!
You're welcome
Bit confused about the one at 6:05, don't you crimp it with the one at the top. It's got RJ45 crimping capability on that?
yeah step 2 answer 3 should be the same crimper as the second tool down right?
Awesome video and your channel is very informative. I failed the core 1 exam by 3 points and ready to take the exam again. Was wondering where, I can get access to the hands on simulation, like what you have on your videos?
would you say these PBQs are similar to the ones you had? I have core 1 coming up and I am so nervous.
some of these simulations were identical to the test I took
Thanks for posting.
As I prepare to take the test I do appreciate videos like this. Mainly because for me I get angry at the second part about crimping and the use of a cable test on the RJ45 & ethernet cable. Mainly because it says crimp and you would use the same crimp tool you used on the RJ11 connection and not the tester. The tester doesn't have crimp functionality on it merely testing for verification of a properly built/connected cable. Coming from a field where I made these cables daily it's aggravating.
Just make sure you answer the question correctly, unlike in this video.
@@lunchmoneyog I didn't get this question but I took both tests a few weeks ago and passed.
I think on the second step we should use the same crimper tool used for the RJ-11 cable.
The questions ask us to crimp the cable not test for functionality so i don't know why we are using a cable tester for cable Z instead of a regular crimper.
By all means correct me if I am wrong
Thank you, I will take a look at. it.
exactly cable tester have nothing to do with this question so its wrong do not place cabel tester.
I got this question thanks.
I had this exact question on the test
Thanks 🙏 I get so confused on some of these
I got the same questions like this, thanks
I had this question except the co-axial was replaced with a fiber optic. Also there was no step 3.
I had this question too, sat my exam yesterday
did you pass ? i have myt exam on saturday were the questions similar to the ones on exam topics website.?@@davidharris5981
Alhamdullilah. Passed my 220-1101 today. These came in so clutch. I'm not gonna reveal any questions though cause of what I signed.
Thanks.
good explanation I like listening to your videos, but the only thing make me cant focus on your videos is the mouth sound (much) some people are sensitive to sounds :)
Thanks so much!!!
Has anyone done or seen the updated version of this? I think this time they ask about a LC connector
Any chance of Core 2 sims? I can't find any anywhere.
The question was to 'Use the correct tool to crimp the cable ends' but there was a cable tester among the options? Does it crimp??? 💀
no, but you use it to test your cable so you can confirm that the ends were properly crimped
@@InformatikLab but the question was to pick the right tool to crimp the cable end. Is it a trick question?
I agree, the tool to crimp seems right. The tester shouldnt be needed as you can tell by the color coding. The cable is assumed good for the question i believe
@@travisschnurr3527 Yes, for anyone else who reads this, answer with the crimper. I passed last week and I didn't get the option for tester, in my exam it was a toner probe. It looks like it just serves as a placeholder for an incorrect answer. Answer with the crimper.
@@TomTKK appreciate you!
can someone explain the crimpers to me? why would u not use the normal crimper on the rj45, and the other 2 crimpers look like they have the same function?
He got that wrong.
Please post mobile device configuration and laser printer parts which like on real exam
Thanks
I will soon
@@InformatikLab thanks you so much sir
i got the first one
Is there a free version link that we can download so we can use it to study?
Just a question why dont u use the crimp tool in rj45
His answer is wrong
Would the VoIP use the rj11 or rj45? Our company VoIP phones use rj45 where I work. Please anyone who has passed this question which one is correct??
I think RJ11 is correct. RJ11 connectors are compatible with RJ45 ports. It does not specify that Desk Phone is a VoiP phone, so most likely is a landline.
Also, I think he should have been used crimper twice on 2nd question, and not cable tester.
@@alexgavril6875voip is rj45
Are these also for the 1101 as well or just 1001?
Great effort...Is there any simulation question for comptia a+1002? Thank you
Hi, I passed the A+ core 2 it's been 3 years, I didnt have any PBQs
@@InformatikLab okay thank you 😊
My exam had a simulation about fixing a big inkjet Printer. any video assistant with that ? kindly assist
Was this the 1001 exam
@@nadrac2002 yes
@@nadrac2002 yes
I’m using this program and was having trouble figuring out how the simulation actually worked 😅
Wait...a cable tester can be used as a crimping tool?
No, a cable tester can just test the pinout of a cable to detect if the cable was properly crimped
VOIP needs to be connected to an RJ45 cable, no? Its Voice over IP, meaning It needs to be Ethernet. If its a cordless phone converted from a PSTN line, you need to use RJ11.
The only reason why I think RJ11 would be correct, is because they don’t specify if that phone is a voip phone or not. It just says “home phone”.
@@mgstechtips But he's plugging it into the VOIP part of the router, and the only connection that would allow IP packets to a router would be an ethernet connection.
@@TomTKK they make adapters for RJ11 to RJ45. I rewatched the video, he does say “voip phone” if you listen carefully . So yea, one would assume you would need a Ethernet and not the phone line
@@mgstechtips Yeah but without him even saying VOIP, it says VOIP on the router. If you see that in your exam make sure you don't get caught out. This guy got another question wrong on another video I watched.
@@TomTKK I watched another video and they said the same thing. That it was the RJ11 phone line. It doesn’t make sense
Can someone please explain why you can't just connect the modem straight to the PC with the RJ45 cable? That's literally my own setup as we speak...
Yes we could use RJ45 for the phone, but in the simulation they put a different port RJ11 so you have to use it anyway, you probably won’t use it if you’re working on a system now, but in the exam you can’t leave it empty
Thx for your comment.
Informatik Lab ok understood, thanks
Step two the answer is completely wrong compared to the question, "Use the correct tool to crimp cable end to the connector." A cable tester would only test if the cable was valid and give you speeds, length and depending the model more detailed information, I would not be the correct tool to use to crimp the connector. Even in the explanation the tester works on RJ11 and RJ45, meaning if the tester was also magically crimping wires, that it would be the correct answer for the x cable. Both The Z and the X cable would use tool B. And tool (a) from the looks of things is a wire cutter, that I may be wrong about, the last time I saw a coaxial crimper it had a round crimping whole not a square whole with a a blade.
Ok, thank you, I’ll take a look at it
This is a fantastic video, but that cursor mov8ng around everywhere was killing me 😅
Hi, could you do core 2 stimulations
Hi, I didn’t have simulation in core 2 exam, it’s just multiple choice questions
I had 4 simulations on the 1002 test
Does anyone know if the 1101 and 1001 have the same PBQs?
I heard they are similar but not exactly the same, at least not all, some are though maybe.
Tip: Set the video speed to 2.0
guys he was just testing to see if we were paying attention, its clearly obvious RJ-11 and RJ-45 both need cable crimpers
OMG the smacking and dragging it out.
Here is a video showing the correct answer since the first answer is WRONG. It says to crimp the cable not test it. th-cam.com/video/QGKqvZDoqmw/w-d-xo.html
Did Anyone enjoy the Movie Coming to America as much as i did? A CLASSIC!
unbelievable stupidness. crimp cable with the tester? is that official question?
I think you don't know what you are talking about, just misleading
