   A hospital deploys a fleet of tablet computers for nurses to access patient records and update medication logs. The tablets connect to the hospital's Wi-Fi network. Which characteristic of mobile devices is most important for the network administrator to consider when planning this deployment?

   • ATablets use the same network interface as desktop computers, so no special configuration is needed.
   • BTablets are always connected to the network because they are mobile devices.
   • CTablets have limited processing power compared to desktop computers, so they cannot run any network applications.
   • DTablets can switch between Wi-Fi and cellular networks, which may cause brief connectivity interruptions.

   A hospital uses mobile tablets for nurses to access patient records, and also has IoT sensors that monitor equipment temperature. The tablets connect to the hospital's Wi-Fi network. Which of the following is a key characteristic of mobile devices as endpoints that the network administrator must consider?

   • AMobile devices primarily use cellular connections and cannot use Wi-Fi for network access.
   • BMobile devices cannot be managed centrally because they are not always on the corporate network.
   • CMobile devices are typically battery-powered and may switch between different networks as they move, requiring robust authentication and roaming support.
   • DMobile devices are not considered endpoints because they are not always connected to the network.
