A wireless workgroup bridge is best suited for which scenario?

• A. When remote buildings house small groups of wired clients needing wireless access to the main network
• B. High-density campus with many APs
• C. Data center with servers
• D. Home office with one laptop

Answer: (A)

A wireless workgroup bridge is used to extend a local network to a remote site by taking a small wired LAN at that location and connecting it over a wireless link to the main network. In practice, you place the bridge at the remote building, connect the local wired devices (like computers or a small switch) to its Ethernet ports, and the bridge communicates wirelessly with the central network's AP or another bridge so those wired devices appear on the main network as if they were directly plugged in. This setup is ideal when a remote building has a few wired clients that need wireless access to the main network without running new cables. It’s not intended for high-density campus environments with many APs, nor for data centers full of servers, and it isn’t necessary for a home office with a single laptop that can connect directly to an existing wireless AP.
