Exam NCP-AII Topic 1 Question 221 Discussion

Actual exam question for NVIDIA's NCP-AII exam
Question #: 221
Topic #: 1
You are setting up a new AI inference server in a colocation facility. The server will be connected to a 100GbE switch managed by the facility. You have the option to use either a single-mode fiber connection with an LR4 transceiver or a multi-mode fiber connection with an SR4 transceiver. The distance between your server and the switch is approximately 75 meters. Considering cost, signal quality, and future scalability, which option is MOST suitable?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

For a distance of 75 meters, an SR4 transceiver with multi-mode fiber is the most suitable option. It is typically more cost-effective than LR4 transceivers and provides adequate signal quality for this distance. LR4 transceivers are designed for longer distances and are more expensive. While AOCs are convenient, SR4 with multimode fiber is more cost effective. Cost-effectiveness is the defining factor between them.
