HPE Aruba Certified Campus Access Professional (ACAP) — Question 26

A university has a dormitory with several floors. Currently APs are deployed in the hallways about every 50 feet (15m). The university has several issues with the existing network:
✑ Students complain that the network is very slow, and the wireless signal is poor.
✑ Students want to connect some equipment such as gaming consoles and IP TVs on Ethernet, but the dorm rooms just have one Ethernet port.
How does the deployment of AP303Hs resolve the customer issues?

Answer options

• A. They are specialized to provide wireless coverage for single-room deployment and also provide wired ports for clients.
• B. They are specialized for wireless meshing, which conserves Ethernet ports, and for high-speed wireless services.
• C. They have high-gain antennas designed for older buildings and support Smart Rate for high bandwidth on one port.
• D. They have directional antennas that will improve the wireless signal and require just one Ethernet port.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because AP303Hs are designed with high-gain antennas suitable for older structures and are capable of Smart Rate, which allows for high bandwidth on one port, addressing the need for better performance and connectivity. Option A is incorrect as it suggests single-room deployment which is not the main solution, option B focuses on wireless meshing which doesn't address the Ethernet port issue, and option D talks about directional antennas but does not mention the support for high bandwidth, making it less suitable.
