500-220 Exam - Question 63


There will be 100 concurrent users streaming video to their laptops. A 30/70 split between 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz will be used. Roughly how many APs (rounded to the nearest whole number) are needed based on client count?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

To determine the number of access points (APs) needed, we can start by analyzing the distribution and the capacity. With 100 concurrent users and a 30/70 split between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, we get 30 users on 2.4 GHz and 70 users on 5 GHz. If we assume each AP can handle about 25 users, we need 30/25 = 1.2 APs for the 2.4 GHz users and 70/25 = 2.8 APs for the 5 GHz users. Rounding up both calculations, we get 2 APs for the 2.4 GHz band and 3 APs for the 5 GHz band. Therefore, the total number of APs needed is 2 + 3 = 5.
