A network administrator is configuring a wireless network in a densely populated office building where interference from other wireless networks is a concern. Given the scenario, which wireless frequency band would BEST minimize interference?
Both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands will perform equally in avoiding interference
5 GHz band
2.4 GHz band
Avoid using wireless and deploy wired connections only
The 5 GHz frequency band is less congested and has more non-overlapping channels than the 2.4 GHz band, making it better at minimizing interference in densely populated areas. Additionally, the higher frequency allows for faster data rates.
