Robert is a network administrator for a large convention center. He is doing a site survey for a new wing of the center that has just opened up and requires a WLAN infrastructure. Because of the distances and spaces involved, Robert plans to implement Power over Ethernet (PoE) so that he only has to manage Ethernet cabling and not have to run a second wiring structure for electricity. Of the choices below, which one is most consistent with Robert’s plan? Choose only one answer.

A. Use PoE to power an antenna that is less than 100 meters away from an Access Point.
B. Use PoE to power an antenna that is more than 100 meters away from an Access Point.
C. Use PoE to power an Access Point that is less than 100 meters away from a wiring closet
D. Use PoE to power an Access Point that is more than 100 meters away from a wiring closet.

Answer later.

C seems to be a logical choice.

 

I'll say C aswell...

 

Jumpin on the bandwagon, goin for C too.

 

Correct answer time. The bandwagon wins again. Correct answer is C. Generally Ethernet cable runs are 100 meters or less in length. PoE allows you to power network devices over the same cable your data goes over (uses different wires of course).
