Cisco 3800 Series APs support IEEE 802.11ac Wave 2, which can deliver throughput exceeding 1 Gbps. Fast Ethernet switches are limited to 100 Mbps per port, creating a severe bottleneck. The two actions that provide maximum support are replacing with mGig switches (Option A) and replacing with gigabit switches with 10G uplinks (Option B). mGig (Multi-Gigabit Ethernet) switches support 2.5G and 5G speeds over existing CAT 6A cabling, allowing the full throughput of 802.11ac Wave 2 APs to be utilized without replacing the existing cable plant. Gigabit switches with 10G uplinks ensure that the access layer can support 1 Gbps per AP port while providing sufficient uplink capacity. Since the existing cabling is already CAT 6A, which supports 10 Gbps over short distances and 5 Gbps over 100 meters, there is no need to replace the wiring (Option D eliminates). The 100-meter distance limitation (Option C) already applies to standard Ethernet and is met by CAT 6A — this is not an action but a constraint check. Option E (55 meters) is only relevant for specific 5GBASE-T configurations and doesn ' t maximize support compared to A and B.
