A network administrator is deploying a new wireless network in a dense office environment. The office has many APs, and the administrator wants to minimize interference. The APs support both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Which channel plan should the administrator use for the 5 GHz band?

Use all available channels, including overlapping ones

Use only channel 36 for all APs

Use only nonoverlapping channels 36, 40, 44, and 48

A warehouse has three APs mounted in a row. The APs are currently set to channels 1, 6, and 11. A new AP is added in the middle of the row. Which channel plan minimizes interference among all four APs?

Set the new AP to channel 1 and keep the others unchanged.

Reassign channels so that adjacent APs use different nonoverlapping channels, such as 1, 6, 11, and 1.

Set the new AP to channel 6 and keep the others unchanged.

Set the new AP to channel 11 and keep the others unchanged.

A wireless engineer is designing a network for a large outdoor campus. The campus has many trees and buildings. The engineer needs to balance coverage and capacity. Which frequency band should be used for the primary coverage?

6 GHz, because it is the newest band.

2.4 GHz, because it provides better range and penetration through obstacles.

5 GHz, because it has more nonoverlapping channels and higher capacity.

Both bands, with 2.4 GHz for coverage and 5 GHz for capacity.

A hospital has a wireless network with many APs. The 2.4 GHz band is heavily congested because of neighboring businesses. The hospital wants to improve performance for its staff. Which approach is most effective?

Use only channels 1, 6, and 11 on the 2.4 GHz band and enable band steering to push clients to 5 GHz.

Increase transmit power on all APs to maximum to overcome interference.

Use 40 MHz channel widths on the 2.4 GHz band to increase throughput.

Disable the 2.4 GHz radios on all APs and use only 5 GHz.
