Which of the following wireless frequency ranges involves the use of channels 1, 6, and 11?
A.
2.4GHz
B.
5GHz
C.
6GHz
D.
60GHz
The Answer Is:
A
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
In Wi-Fi, the 2.4GHz band contains 14 total channels (depending on region), but only channels 1, 6, and 11 are considered non-overlapping in most countries. CompTIA A+ highlights the importance of selecting these channels to minimize interference, especially in environments with multiple wireless networks or access points.
The 2.4GHz band is narrower than 5GHz, causing adjacent channels to overlap significantly. Using channels 1, 6, and 11 prevents overlap and reduces signal interference, improving performance and stability.
5GHz (B) has many non-overlapping channels and does not use the 1/6/11 scheme. The 6GHz band (C) is part of Wi-Fi 6E and uses entirely different channel planning. The 60GHz band (D) supports short-range high-speed connections like WiGig, not traditional Wi-Fi channels.
Therefore, the 2.4GHz band is the correct answer.
