A customer has restricted the AP and antenna combinations for a design to be limited to one model integrated antenna AP for carpeted spaces and one morel external antenna AP, with high gain antennas for industrial, maintenance, or storage areas.
When moving between a carpeted area to an industrial area, the engineer forgets to change survey devices and surveys several APs.
Which strategy will reduce the negative impact of the design?

A. B. C. D.D.
The scenario describes a situation where the engineer has conducted a wireless survey using the wrong survey device, resulting in APs being deployed with incorrect configurations in different areas. To reduce the negative impact of this design, one needs to understand the requirements of the customer and then make appropriate changes to the design.
Option A - Deploy unsurveyed access points to the design: This option is not suitable because it suggests deploying additional APs that have not been surveyed. This will not address the problem of APs that have been incorrectly surveyed and may lead to more issues with interference and coverage.
Option B - Increase the Tx power on incorrectly surveyed access points: This option is not recommended as it can create more problems than it solves. Increasing the Tx power on the APs can cause interference with neighboring APs and increase co-channel interference, leading to a decrease in overall network performance.
Option C - Deploy the specified access points per area type: This option is the most appropriate and effective solution. The customer has specified a particular model of integrated antenna AP for carpeted spaces and another model of external antenna AP with high gain antennas for industrial, maintenance, or storage areas. Deploying the specified access points per area type will ensure that the correct APs are deployed in the right locations, resulting in optimal network performance.
Option D - Resurvey and adjust the design: This option is also a viable solution, but it can be time-consuming and expensive. A resurvey and redesign will require additional resources, and the customer may not be willing to incur additional costs. It is also important to note that the customer has already specified the AP and antenna combinations for the design, so a redesign may not be necessary if the correct APs are deployed in the correct areas.
In conclusion, the most appropriate strategy for reducing the negative impact of the design is to deploy the specified access points per area type. This will ensure that the correct APs are deployed in the right locations, resulting in optimal network performance.
