A field technician connects a high-speed external storage enclosure requiring Thunderbolt protocol capabilities to a newly deployed tablet using a verified high-speed USB Type-C cable. Although the enclosure powers on and mounts successfully, data transfers are capped at legacy USB speeds (). Which of the following best explains why the connection fails to achieve Thunderbolt transfer rates?
- The tablet's physical USB Type-C port is internally wired only for USB 2.0 signals and lacks host controller hardware support for Thunderbolt.Cevap
- BBecause all physical USB Type-C ports inherently support Thunderbolt protocols, the reduced speed indicates an active Mobile Device Management (MDM) bandwidth throttle policy.
- CThe tablet requires a cellular SIM card provisioned with a matching IMSI to authenticate high-speed external bus operations.
- DThe throughput drop occurs because the tablet is attempting to transfer data using an IMAP synchronization protocol instead of direct bus access.
Cevap
The tablet's physical USB Type-C port is internally wired only for USB 2.0 signals and lacks host controller hardware support for Thunderbolt.
The USB Type-C connector is a universal physical form factor. However, the presence of a USB Type-C port does not mean the host device includes a Thunderbolt controller or high-speed data lines. If the tablet's chipset only implements a USB 2.0 host controller, high-speed Thunderbolt peripherals will fall back to USB 2.0 speeds ().
