A new systems consolidation plan requires that you implement a few workstations that will host several guest operating systems each. In your research you have decided to use a type-1 hypervisor for the host workstations. Which of the below virtualization solutions will work?
Install Windows Hyper-V Server. Install the guest operating systems one-by-one.
Install VMWare Workstation. Install the guest operating systems one-by-one.
Install Oracle VM VirtualBox. Install the guest operating systems one-by-one.
Install VMWare Fusion. Install the guest operating systems one-by-one.
Install Windows Hyper-V Server. Install the guest operating systems one-by-one.
Microsoft Hyper-V is a type-1 hypervisor. Windows Server 2008, 2012, 2016, and Windows 10 all include Hyper-V. There is also a stand-alone Windows Hyper-V Server product. Hyper-V can be enabled or disabled inside a Windows operating system. This alludes to being a type-2 hypervisor as it is within the Windows operating system. Because the scenario calls for a type-1 hypervisor, the best choice is to use the Windows Hyper-V Server, because it installs directly on bare metal.

Plenum cables
Crossover cables
Drop cables
Riser cables
Plenum cables
Plenum rated cable has a special insulation that has low smoke and low flame characteristics. Plenum cable is mandated to be installed in any “air handling” space. For example, most large office buildings use the ceiling to return air to the AC unit.
