USB-C supports bidirectional communication, which means it can both send and receive data, including video, audio, power, and data signals over the same cable. This is unlike traditional video cables such as VGA, DVI, or even DisplayPort, which primarily transmit data in one direction.

“USB-C is a reversible connector capable of transmitting power, data, video, and audio signals. It is also bidirectional, allowing two-way communication between devices.” — CompTIA ITF+ Study Guide

VGA, DVI, and even DisplayPort are primarily unidirectional video outputs.

Only USB-C fully supports modern bidirectional multimedia communication.

Correct answer: D

Although a phone number contains only digits, it is best stored as a string because:

It doesn’t require mathematical operations.

It may include formatting symbols like dashes or parentheses.

“Phone numbers are stored as strings because they are identifiers, not values for computation.” — CompTIA ITF+ Data Types

Correct answer: A

When a system administrator needs to troubleshoot a user’s laptop remotely, especially over a VPN, they would use remote assistance software. This allows full or partial control over the target system for diagnostic and support tasks.

“Remote assistance software enables support personnel to remotely access and control another computer to perform diagnostics or provide help, often used in IT support scenarios.” — CompTIA ITF+ Guide

Correct answer: D

Installing software typically requires elevated permissions that standard user accounts do not have. The CompTIA ITF+ FC0-U71 Official Study Guide explains:

“An administrator account provides full system access, including installing or removing software, changing system settings, and managing user accounts.”

The user account does not have these privileges by default.

Least privilege refers to granting only the minimum permissions necessary (which would not typically include software installation for regular users).

Single factor refers to authentication methods, not access levels.

Since the employee is denied installation due to insufficient privileges, administrator access is needed to complete the installation.
