CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 533
A network engineer is surveying the existing wireless infrastructure to propose additional changes to increase throughput. The SSID is already on an uncongested
5GHz frequency. Which of the following should the engineer configure?
Answer options
- A. Channel bonding
- B. 802.11a
- C. Dual-band frequency
- D. An omnidirectional antenna
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Channel bonding allows for the combination of two or more channels to increase the overall throughput, making it the best choice for enhancing performance on an uncongested 5GHz frequency. 802.11a is an older standard that does not provide improvements over the current setup. A dual-band frequency is not necessary since the SSID is already on 5GHz, and an omnidirectional antenna may not effectively increase throughput compared to channel bonding.
