CWNP Exam CWDP-303 Topic 6 Question 54 Discussion

Actual exam question for CWNP's CWDP-303 exam

Question #: 54
Topic #: 6

During a validation site survey, you realize that the installers mounted some of the APs above the ceiling. They said that this was a request from the building architect due to aesthetics constraints. During the requirements gathering, you weren't advised about any aesthetics constraints from the main stakeholder of the project. What should you do in this case?

AAdvise the stakeholder that WLAN performance requirements will not be met and a new design process will be needed to meet the requirements.

BLeave it as it is and allow automatic channel management to correct any issues.

CIncrease the output power on all APs by 6 dB immediately.

DRemove all external antennas and use only the internal antennas to reduce multipath.

I don't think increasing the output power or removing antennas will solve the issue. We need to address the root cause.

Should we consider adjusting the output power on the APs or removing external antennas?

I can't believe they mounted some APs above the ceiling without informing us about aesthetic constraints.

I bet the architect thought mounting the APs above the ceiling would be 'out of sight, out of mind'. Little did they know, it's going to be a nightmare to troubleshoot and maintain.

Looks like the architect needs a lesson in wireless networking 101. This is a classic case of form over function, and it's not going to end well.

Using internal antennas to reduce multipath? That's like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. Definitely not the way to go here.

Increasing the output power by 6 dB? That's just going to create more interference and problems. Not a good solution at all.

Wow, the installers really messed this one up. Allowing automatic channel management to fix it? No way, that's just a band-aid. We need to address this properly.

This question is tricky! Mounting APs above the ceiling is a big no-no in my opinion. It's going to severely impact WLAN performance and coverage. I'd definitely advise the stakeholder that the requirements won't be met with this design.
