HPE Aruba Certified Mobility Associate (ACMA) — Question 6

An architect needs to plan 802.11ac wireless deployment for an office environment with a mix of closed offices and cubicles. The coverage area is approximately
4,645 square meters (approximately 50,000 square feet) and has 350 users. The employees use the wireless network for typical office applications, such as email,
Web, printing, and accessing shared files and datacenter services.
The architect plans to do a predictive site survey and use VisualRF to plan the coverage. What is a general estimate for the AP count that the architect should have in mind?

Answer options

• A. 5-10
• B. 10-15
• C. 20-25
• D. 40-45

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C (20-25 APs) because this range is appropriate for the specified coverage area and user density, considering the typical bandwidth requirements for office applications. Options A and B provide insufficient coverage, while D offers excessive APs, which would lead to unnecessary complexity and cost.
