01. A customer needs two things from the same project: reliable coverage inside a warehouse from ceiling-mounted access points, and a dedicated point-to-point link carrying that network half a mile to a detached shipping office with no other connectivity option.
Which recommendation correctly separates what each part of the project actually requires?
a) Use omnidirectional antennas for the dedicated link to the shipping office, since spreading the signal in all directions gives the strongest connection
b) Use highly directional antennas on every ceiling-mounted access point over the warehouse, and on the dedicated link to the shipping office, suiting both needs equally well
c) Use omnidirectional antennas for the indoor access points, and a highly directional antenna for the dedicated link to the shipping office, since the two needs call for different antenna types
d) Use one antenna type across the whole warehouse and shipping-office project, since mixing antenna types is not something access points support
02. During a site walk, a prospective customer points out a warehouse aisle lined with stacked metal shelving and asks why signal seems to bounce and create dead spots nearby, while a separate area full of water-filled containers seems to simply lose signal instead.
Which pair of RF behaviors is the customer describing?
a) Attenuation weakening the signal as it crosses the warehouse aisle, and amplification from the metal shelving boosting it back out
b) Reflection off the metal shelving, and absorption by the water-filled containers
c) Diffraction bending signal around the stacked shelving, and scattering spreading it off the water-filled containers in many directions
d) Interference from nearby radios competing near the shelving, and refraction bending the signal as it passes through the water-filled containers
03. A customer runs a mid-size open-plan office and wants even coverage spreading outward from a centrally mounted access point in every horizontal direction, with no single area favored.
Which antenna type should the specialist recommend for that access point?
a) A highly directional antenna, to concentrate the signal from the centrally mounted access point into a narrow beam aimed at one side of the open-plan office rather than spreading it in every direction
b) An external directional antenna, to extend the signal from the centrally mounted access point toward a neighboring building rather than covering the open-plan office evenly in every direction
c) An omnidirectional antenna, to spread coverage evenly in all horizontal directions from the mount point
d) A semi-directional antenna, to focus coverage from the centrally mounted access point toward one side of the open-plan office, such as a hallway, rather than spreading it evenly outward
04. While gathering background on a customer's building, the CWSS learns that the building shares a wall with another tenant who runs an independent Wi-Fi network the customer has no control over.
Why does the CWSS need to learn about that neighboring network during discovery?
a) Because a neighboring network can compete for the same channels and add interference the design must account for
b) Because it changes how much PoE budget and cabling the customer's switches need to reach every additional access point installed near the shared wall
c) Because it only matters if the customer later adds an outdoor bridge link connecting this building to another location elsewhere on the property
d) Because the neighboring network must be shut down before installation can proceed, requiring the customer to coordinate directly with the other tenant's own management team
05. A hospital wants to compare a nurse's handheld device that moves throughout the building all shift with a wall-mounted patient monitor that never leaves its room.
Which capability difference between the two is most relevant to planning the wireless network?
a) Only the handheld device needs encryption enabled, since it travels through hallways and shared areas, while the fixed monitor goes without it
b) Only the stationary monitor needs an IP address, since it stays in one place all shift
c) The stationary monitor requires more RF coverage than the handheld device, since it stays in a fixed spot
d) The handheld device needs continuous coverage and smooth roaming across the building, while the stationary monitor does not
06. During a discovery interview, a customer mentions that their cafeteria is nearly empty most of the day but packed with employees checking email and streaming music during the lunch rush.
What is this kind of area, defined during discovery, best called?
a) A capacity zone, an area defined by expected device density and traffic load
b) An access-type zone, defined by who is authorized to connect and log in
c) A specialty-device zone, an area defined by non-standard equipment
d) A link zone, an area requiring a dedicated point-to-point connection
07. A customer already owns enough access points to cover the building on paper, but staff still report frequent drops near the loading dock, and the customer insists the problem must be a lack of coverage and wants to simply buy more access points.
Which explanation should the specialist raise before agreeing to add hardware?
a) The client devices used at the loading dock are outdated, and replacing them should come first
b) The building simply needs additional access points until the loading dock is covered
c) The access points should be switched from controller-based to autonomous management to fix the drops
d) The existing access points may have placement and configuration problems, and adding more without fixing those could add interference rather than solve the drops
08. Before ever visiting a customer's site, a CWSS wants to gather as much background as possible about the existing network.
Which of the following is a source of information that can typically be requested and reviewed before any site visit takes place?
a) Existing network budget sign-off from the customer's finance department
b) Existing network diagrams and documentation the customer already has on file
c) The exact make and model of every access point that will eventually be purchased for the site
d) A live RF spectrum analysis performed on site during the visit
09. A customer describes several ways their staff use the WLAN, including a video conferencing application where any delay is immediately noticeable to the people talking.
Which category of application does that video conferencing use best fit?
a) A specialty-device application
b) A data-intensive application
c) A real-time application
d) A standard application
10. During a discovery interview at an office building, the customer lists laptops, tablets, and smartphones used by staff, then separately mentions an electronic door lock on the server room that also needs network access.
Which item on that list is best classified as a specialty device?
a) The electronic door lock
b) The tablets used by staff
c) The laptops used by staff
d) The smartphones used by staff
