User number 300 People, concurrency rate 70% , Terminal support 2.4GHz and 5GHz Frequency band, in accordance with each AP Maximum number of dual-band access users40 people Consider, need at least () AP Able to meet capacity requirements?

WLAN capacity planning requires calculating the total number of concurrent users and dividing that by the user capacity per Access Point (AP). First, determine the total concurrent users: 300 total users multiplied by a 70% concurrency rate yields 210 concurrent active users ($300 \times 0.70 = 210$). Next, calculate the minimum required APs based on each dual-band AP supporting up to 40 access users: $210 \div 40 = 5.25$ APs. Because AP deployments require integer units to fully accommodate all concurrent users without exceeding capacity limits, the result must be rounded up to the next whole integer, resulting in 6 APs.

A: 5 APs can only support up to 200 concurrent users ($5 \times 40 = 200$), which falls short of the required 210 concurrent users. C: 7 APs exceed the minimum required quantity, resulting in unnecessary hardware over-provisioning and increased deployment cost. D: 8 APs significantly over-provision capacity, which increases co-channel interference and capital expenditure unnecessarily.
