How should the engineer respond to the customer’s requirements?

An engineer is assigned to replace an older data-grade autonomous wireless network with a Cisco controller-based wireless network to meet Voice over WLAN needs. The customer also wants all existing cable infrastructure to be reused and no new cable be specified. How should the engineer respond to the customer’s requirements?
A. Implement the wireless network with the restraints and decrease the TPC neighbor threshold to increase Tx power to provide overlapping cell coverage at sufficient SNR to provide for Voice over WLAN service.
B. Implement the wireless network with the restraints and utilize high-gain antenna to provide overlapping cell coverage at sufficient SNR to provide for Voice over WLAN service.
C. Inform the customer that the network will not likely function as desired and a post install survey with the possibility of some new cable would be recommended.
D. Inform the customer that it is not possible to provide coverage and quality for Voice over WLAN using existing AP locations and an entire overbuild will be necessary.

  1. C is my first choice
    D is my 2nd choice
    B is possible but definitely not the best answer

    Where did VCEGuide get the answers from? My concern is B might actually be the “correct” answer.

  2. I think the answer is D.

    Because as a consultant/professional, we must give the best scenario first. The quality will more better if we redesign. If the customer dont want to accept our suggestion, we must compromize and lower the requirement to C.

  3. This answer is just wrong you cannot upgrade a data network just by applying power. The correct answer I believe is “C” but “D” could be correct as well. I think “C” is more reasonable though.

  4. The most reasonable answer is C. All the others talk about changes in equipment (or overbuild) which could divert us from the original budget…Why B?? Why? What SNR performance has to do if the bottleneck we have in the wired network … I do not understand …For me the correct answer is C.
