300-360 Question #21: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is D: Deploy RAP where limited cable can be run or exists, and extend coverage using MAP.. The correct solution is to deploy a wireless mesh network using Root Access Points (RAPs) where wired connections exist, and Mesh Access Points (MAPs) to extend coverage wirelessly to areas where cabling cannot be run. MAPs communicate with RAPs (or other MAPs) over a wireless ba

Explanation
The correct solution is to deploy a wireless mesh network using Root Access Points (RAPs) where wired connections exist, and Mesh Access Points (MAPs) to extend coverage wirelessly to areas where cabling cannot be run. MAPs communicate with RAPs (or other MAPs) over a wireless backhaul, eliminating the need to run Ethernet to every AP location. This is the standard approach in environments with cabling restrictions. Options A and B still require running some form of new cabling infrastructure. Option C (high-gain antennas) may improve range from existing locations but does not effectively solve coverage gaps in areas where cable cannot reach.
