Actual exam question for CWNP's CWDP-305 exam
Question #: 13
Topic #: 3
[All CWDP-305 Questions]

Given: The 802.11ac APs you have selected for your public access deployment support many of the PHY and MAC enhancements offered by the

802.11n and

802.11ac amendments. The AP is configured for a single-band (2.4 GHz) and only allows 20 MHz channels. The WLAN radio in the AP is a 3x3

802.11n chip that supports two spatial streams.

What is the maximum MCS rate that could be supported by this AP?

Nope, 54 Mbps is correct for single-band 20 MHz.

Wait, are we sure about that? Seems low for 802.11n.

Haha, D) 144 Mbps? What is this, the future? B) 65 Mbps is the way to go.

B) 65 Mbps is the correct answer. The question clearly states the AP is limited to 2.4 GHz and 20 MHz channels.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm going to go with C) 108 Mbps just to be different.

D) 144 Mbps seems too high for a 2.4 GHz, 20 MHz, 2x2 MIMO AP. I'm going with B) 65 Mbps.

I feel like I’ve seen 65 Mbps mentioned for single-stream setups, but with two streams, I’m leaning towards 108 Mbps as the right answer.

I’m a bit confused because I thought 802.11ac could do more, but since this is limited to 2.4 GHz and 20 MHz, maybe it’s lower than I expected.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think 108 Mbps was the max for 20 MHz with two streams in 802.11n.

I think the maximum MCS rate for 802.11n with two spatial streams is around 144 Mbps, but I’m not entirely sure if that applies with the 20 MHz channel limitation.

108 Mbps sounds more like it, but only with wider channels.

Based on the information provided, I'm leaning towards option B) 65 Mbps as the max MCS rate. But I'll double-check my work to be sure.

Okay, I know the AP supports 2.4 GHz and 20 MHz channels, and it's a 3x3 802.11n chip with 2 spatial streams. I think that narrows it down to a few options.

Hmm, this seems tricky. I'll need to think through the 802.11n and 802.11ac features carefully to figure out the max MCS rate.
