HPE Aruba Certified Design Expert (ACDX) — Question 43

How does a high-gain omni-directional antenna compare to a typical omni-directional antenna?

Answer options

• A. it provides more coverage in both the horizontal and vertical directions.
• B. it provides more single-user spatial streams.
• C. it provides more coverage in the horizontal direction than in the vertical direction.
• D. it provides more multi-user spatial streams.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because a high-gain omni-directional antenna is designed to focus its signal more in the horizontal plane, which results in greater horizontal coverage than vertical. Options A and B are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the characteristics of a high-gain omni-directional antenna, and option D does not address the coverage aspect.
