CompTIA Network+ (N10-006) — Question 40

An organization is required to implement a wireless network. The organization must implement wireless routers compatible with 802.11ac protocol that have maximum possible range.
Which of the following wireless router frequencies is a viable option?

Answer options

• A. 2.4GHz
• B. 3.7GHz
• C. 5.0GHz
• D. 6.0GHz

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The 2.4GHz frequency offers a longer range compared to the 5.0GHz frequency, making it a viable option for maximizing coverage. Frequencies like 3.7GHz and 6.0GHz are not standard options for wireless routers, so they are not applicable here. Therefore, 2.4GHz is the correct answer as it meets the requirement of the maximum range for 802.11ac routers.
