Implementing Cisco Wireless Network Fundamentals (WIFUND, legacy) — Question 86

Which statement about beamforming on a wireless network is true?

Answer options

• A. It increases the RF coverage of the access points
• B. It moves the wireless signal automatically to different channels when there is high utilization
• C. It improves the SNR by focusing the signal transmission to the client
• D. It balances the traffic load by distributing clients across different access points

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because beamforming allows access points to direct their signals more effectively, thus extending their RF coverage. Options B and D are incorrect because they describe different functionalities that beamforming does not perform. Option C, while related to signal quality, does not accurately capture the primary purpose of beamforming.
