The answer is the first one: Punch down tool.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Punch down tool: This is the correct choice. A punch down tool is specifically designed for securing cable wiring to a patch panel. It is used to insert wires into insulation-displacement connectors on the patch panel, ensuring a secure and reliable connection.

  2. Network tap: This is incorrect. A network tap is used for monitoring network traffic, not for securing cables to a patch panel.

  3. Extension magnet: This is incorrect. An extension magnet is typically used for retrieving metal objects from hard-to-reach places, not for securing cables.

  4. Combination ratchet/screwdriver: This is incorrect. While a combination ratchet/screwdriver can be used for various tasks involving screws, it is not specifically designed for securing cable wiring to a patch panel.

In summary, the punch down tool is the best choice for securing cable wiring to a patch panel due to its specific design and functionality for this task.
