Explanation
Assessing existing wired infrastructure before a wireless deployment focuses on three physical and capacity concerns. PoE requirement (A): you must verify whether existing switches provide Power over Ethernet (802.3af/at) to power APs without running separate electrical circuits. Cable length (B): Ethernet has a 100-meter maximum run; existing cable pulls must be measured to confirm APs can be placed where coverage demands. Port bandwidth (C): the uplink port connecting each AP is a shared bottleneck; 802.11n/ac APs can easily saturate a 100 Mbps port, making Gigabit ports necessary. QoS, UPS, LWAPP, and CAPWAP support are valid considerations but are not the primary reasons for a physical wired infrastructure assessment.
