Installers finish a community center WLAN with a different channel plan than the approved RF design. What must happen before acceptance?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
If the finished painting isn’t what the architect signed, you don’t hang the gallery lights and walk away—you file the change. Same for RF: write down what changed, get it approved, and update the as-built channel plan before anyone stamps acceptance.
Full Explanation
As-built RF deviations from the approved design require formal change control so stakeholders understand interference, DFS, and capacity impacts. Documented approval and updated as-built drawings preserve auditability and future troubleshooting baselines. Silent acceptance or skipping records creates operational debt. Neighboring APs on identical channels would worsen co-channel contention and is not a valid acceptance rule.
