    This is another attempt by CompTIA to trick anyone taking this test into selecting a wrong answer. It’s all about spending another 250 bucks to take the test again.

    This cable has an open circuit – you can say it wasn’t properly crimped, maybe the pin broke later after being yanked from the wall, whatever – the point is, it lacks CONTINUITY. Both a cable certifier and a multimeter can test for continuity. Using a cable certifier would be overkill, but it’s the correct answer.

    It must be a Multimeter.

    Cable testers /Multimeter verify that a cable is wired accurately and can easily identify open and shorts. You can use it to check a cable after connecting connectors to the cable. Additionally, you can use it on cables you suspect are faulty due to problems such as being stepped on or run over by a chair.

    Cable Certifier
    A cable certifier is used to verify that a cable meets its specifications such as the bandwidth and frequency. For example, it can verify a CAT 5e cable meets specifications and supports speeds of 1000 Mbps, and can verify a CAT 6 cable supports speeds of 10 Gbps.

    Please correct me if I’am wrong.
