The correct tool for locating the physical location of a bad CAT5 cable in the server room wall is a D. Toner probe. A toner probe, also known as a cable tracer or cable tracker, is a tool that helps identify and trace cables within a wall or infrastructure. It typically consists of a tone generator (which is connected to one end of the cable) and a probe (which is used to trace the cable path and locate it within the wall or infrastructure).
