A network engineer is deploying wireless access points equipped with directional patch antennas along high-ceiling inventory aisles in a logistics warehouse. The objective is to provide clear coverage along narrow aisle corridors while minimizing co-channel interference and signal leakage into adjacent parallel aisles. Which of the following deployment parameters and configuration settings should the engineer implement? (Select TWO.)
- Align the primary radiation beam of directional antennas parallel to the aisle pathways.Answer
- Reduce access point transmit power and raise the minimum basic data rate to shrink cell boundaries.Answer
- CDeploy high-gain omnidirectional antennas on access points above every aisle intersection.
- DConfigure channel bonding across all access points operating on the spectrum.
- EAssign the same static channel to access points located in neighboring parallel aisles.
Answer
The engineer should align directional antenna coverage parallel to the aisle pathways and reduce access point transmit power while increasing minimum basic data rates to limit cell boundary overlap.
Aligning directional antenna radiation beams along aisle pathways directs wireless signals specifically along user movement corridors while minimizing signal leakage into adjacent aisles. Concurrently, lowering access point transmit power and increasing the minimum basic rate restricts cell size boundaries, reducing co-channel interference across neighboring access points.
