Question 24

A wireless engineer is getting ready to perform a predictive site survey. The new network needs to support data and voice over wireless. Which two Cisco recommendations should be considered for the design? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: B, D

    For a wireless network that supports both data and voice, Cisco recommends the use of the 5 GHz radio band due to its 40 MHz bandwidth capability. This is because the 5 GHz band offers more bandwidth and less interference compared to the 2.4 GHz band. Additionally, setting the cell boundary to -67 dBm is crucial for ensuring voice quality. This threshold helps maintain a stable and strong signal, which is essential for the reliability and clarity of voice communications over wireless networks.

I think C & D is correct, 15 % is for High density deployment. Chapter 5 "Applying Wireless Design Requirements" page 355 in CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide 2nd Edition

I think B&D should be correct https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/8-5/Enterprise-Mobility-8-5-Design-Guide/Enterprise_Mobility_8-5_Deployment_Guide/Chapter-9.html#36873 "It is not likely that this 19 dBm of separation can be achieved in most deployments. The most important RF design criteria are the -67 dBm cell radius and the 20 percent recommended overlap between cells. Designing to these constraints optimizes channel separation." "The data rate is 150 Mbps for an 802.11n client on the 5 GHz band with a 40 MHz wide channel and with a one spatial stream client. A laptop running a softphone application such as Jabber can support three spatial streams and have a date rate to 450 Mbps on a 5 GHz, 40 MHz wide channel. Both an 802.11ac client and an 802.11n client that is only 20 MHz wide and supporting one spatial stream can share Wi-Fi channel access on a 40 MHz wide channel with an 802.11ac three spatial stream client on a 80 MHz wide channel."

Chapter 5 "Applying Wireless Design Requirements" Designing a Wireless Network for Voice and Video "As you plan the band and channel assignment for each AP, try to leverage the 5GHz band as much as possible. There are more non-overlapping channels there and much less chance of interference from non-Wi-Fi devices than in 2.4GHz. A common practice is to use the U-NII-1 and U-NII-3 channels, while avoiding U-NII-2 and U-NII-2 Extended channels because of DFS requirements."

I agree it's C and D

-67 dBm cell boundary is a requirement for Voice. Channel-bonding is a site-dependent capability and should at least be considered. ------- - 19 dBm is incorrect. dBm is a compared value. As it is the separation between 2 AP's, it should have been stated as 19 dBm. And in most deployments this is not achievable. The number of non-overlapping channels is regulatory domain dependent. The cell overlap should be 20% instead of 15%

JBERTHIER

Good point for noticing the incorrect usage of dBm to express a difference between two cells !

Both D and E are explain here : https://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Mobility/emob30dg/Voice.pdf

angelclawOptions: DE

Cisco will not provide answers that involve regulatory domain, so it is not option C. B is not an option because using 20MHz is enough for any voice deployment. Option D and E are correct because both are specified in the Cisco PDF here: https://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Mobility/emob30dg/Voice.pdf

FabriGOptions: BD

According to Cisco ENWLSD Course, it is B and D. 20 MHz BW recommended for only voice use cases (24/25 channels)

JBERTHIEROptions: DE

Is is D and E 40Mhz is useless for voice and it is limiting the number of channels available. There is 25 channels available in 5Ghz but UNII-2 is under DFS regulation so unusable for voice deployment.

BabustestOptions: CE

To reduce channel utilization in the 2.4 GHz band, Cisco recommends moving clients to 5 GHz. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/8-1/Enterprise-Mobility-8-1-Design-Guide/Enterprise_Mobility_8-1_Deployment_Guide/Chapter-9.html

Babustest

Please ignore. It's C and D

Arent there 25 channels in 5Ghz?
