To complete the task of identifying and labeling cables in the wiring closet where nothing is currently labeled, the technician should use:
C. Toner probe.
Explanation:
A toner probe (Option C) is a tool used to trace and identify cables in a network or wiring system. The toner is connected to one end of the cable, and the technician uses the probe to trace the corresponding cable in the wiring closet. This helps in identifying and labeling cables.
Can't be A. To use a cable tester you would have to disconnect every cable to test causing service disruptions. You need to trace the cable without disrupting service and to do so you would use a Toner probe so C is correct.
