A network engineer is retrofitting an existing building wired with Category 5e with Cisco Aironet 3800 Series APs and mGig switches. Which cable length allows for 5G operation?

The correct answer is C. 130 m. The Cisco Aironet 3800 Series APs support mGig, which allows for higher throughput over existing cabling. However, the maximum cable length that supports 5G operation is limited by the quality of the cable and signal attenuation. Category 5e cabling can support 5G operation up…

Explanation

The Cisco Aironet 3800 Series APs support mGig, which allows for higher throughput over existing cabling. However, the maximum cable length that supports 5G operation is limited by the quality of the cable and signal attenuation. Category 5e cabling can support 5G operation up to a length of 130 meters, which is within the acceptable range for maintaining the required signal integrity for 5G speeds.
