Two fire stations need a wireless bridge for shared CAD traffic in addition to indoor WLAN. What extra design work is required?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A rooftop bridge isn’t the same homework as hallway coverage—you need link budget, Fresnel clearance, and antennas aimed at the other station. Indoor heat maps don’t certify a street-crossing hop. Powerline across the road isn’t a fire-grade backhaul plan.
Full Explanation
Point-to-point or point-to-multipoint bridges require separate design artifacts: path profiles, antenna selection, channel/licensing considerations, availability, and capacity planning. Indoor AP surveys and casual mesh assumptions do not replace bridge engineering. Consumer powerline across public right-of-way is inappropriate for station backhaul.
