When designing an enterprise Wi-Fi deployment, a network technician must decide between utilizing the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio frequency bands. Which characteristic represents an advantage of using the 2.4 GHz band compared to the 5 GHz band?
- Longer propagation distance and superior signal penetration through physical barriersCevap
- BA significantly larger pool of non-overlapping channels to eliminate co-channel interference
- CHigher overall data throughput capacity resulting from standard wider channel bonding
- DLower susceptibility to interference caused by common household and industrial devices
Cevap
The 2.4 GHz band provides longer propagation distance and superior signal penetration through physical barriers.
Lower frequency radio waves (2.4 GHz) have longer wavelengths. This physical property allows 2.4 GHz wireless signals to cover greater distances and pass through solid obstructions (such as drywall, wood, and concrete) with less signal loss compared to higher frequency 5 GHz waves.
