Which of the following descriptions about the comparison between Mesh network and traditional LAN network (AP uplink uses wired network) are correct? (Multiple choice)

Question

Options

• ACompared with traditional WLAN networks, Mesh networks are more flexible and APs can join or
• BCompared with traditional WLAN networks, Mesh networks have better anti-interference
• CCompared with traditional WLAN networks, the construction cost of Mesh networks is lower
• DCompared with traditional WLAN networks, Mesh networks have larger bandwidth and lower data

• A
  87% (13)
• B
  7% (1)
• D
  7% (1)

Explanation

A is correct because Mesh APs use wireless backhaul to connect with each other rather than physical Ethernet cables, making it easy to add, remove, or reposition APs without infrastructure changes - true deployment flexibility. C is correct because eliminating the need to run Ethernet cabling to every AP dramatically reduces installation labor and material costs, especially in large or hard-to-cable environments.

B is wrong because Mesh networks actually have worse anti-interference characteristics - the wireless backhaul competes for the same RF spectrum as client traffic, making it more vulnerable to interference than traditional WLAN where the uplink is a shielded wired connection. D is wrong because Mesh networks have lower effective bandwidth and higher latency, not the reverse - each wireless hop introduces overhead that cuts throughput (sometimes by half per hop on single-radio systems) and adds propagation delay.

Memory tip: Think "Mesh = less wire, more freedom, less speed." The flexibility and cost savings come from removing cables (A, C), but that same wireless-everything design is the reason Mesh loses on performance and interference resistance (ruling out B and D).
