300-365 · Question #146

Which two parameters must be considered when conducting an outdoor mesh site survey? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. weather D. Fresnel zone. Outdoor mesh site surveys must account for weather impacts on equipment and RF, and Fresnel zone clearance to ensure reliable backhaul links between mesh nodes.

Why each option

Outdoor mesh site surveys must account for weather impacts on equipment and RF, and Fresnel zone clearance to ensure reliable backhaul links between mesh nodes.

AweatherCorrect

Weather conditions including wind load, rain-induced attenuation, ice accumulation, and temperature extremes directly affect antenna alignment stability, signal propagation, and equipment enclosure integrity, making weather assessment a mandatory component of any outdoor mesh site survey.

Btraffic lights

Traffic lights are not a meaningful source of RF interference or physical obstruction relevant to outdoor Wi-Fi mesh deployments and are not a standard outdoor mesh site survey parameter.

Cthroughput

Throughput is a performance requirement or design target, not a physical site condition - it is a metric validated after deployment rather than a parameter assessed during the pre-deployment site survey.

DFresnel zoneCorrect

The Fresnel zone is the elliptical RF propagation region between two antennas that must maintain at least 60% clearance from physical obstructions - outdoor mesh surveys must verify that buildings, trees, and terrain do not encroach on this zone, as violations cause significant diffraction loss and link degradation.

Enear-far effect

The near-far effect is primarily a concern in CDMA cellular systems where a nearby transmitter overpowers a distant one at a shared receiver, and is not a primary parameter evaluated during outdoor Wi-Fi mesh site surveys.
