Implementing Cisco Wireless Network Fundamentals (WIFUND, legacy) — Question 100

A wireless engineer has been asked to plan a deployment covering the aisles of a warehouse with optimal coverage while bleeding RF across aisles. Which antenna type provides the necessary coverage?

Answer options

• A. patch
• B. omnidirectional
• C. Yagi
• D. parabolic dish

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The patch antenna is ideal for providing coverage in specific areas with a controlled pattern, allowing for optimal RF bleeding across aisles. Omnidirectional antennas provide 360-degree coverage but may not focus enough for aisle-specific needs, while Yagi and parabolic dish antennas are designed for long-range, directional signals, making them unsuitable for this scenario.
