warehouse?

Option B saw this type on a practice exam too.
Option B, NFC is a trap here, RFID is way more suited for inventory tracking tags.
B , RFID is built for inventory tracking with tags you can scan all at once, no line of sight needed. Bluetooth and NFC just aren't as practical for bulk item tracking in a warehouse. Pretty sure it's B but open to counterpoints if I missed something.
B
RFID is definitely meant for this kind of job, so B fits. It allows scanning lots of tagged items fast and you don't need line of sight like with barcode. Bluetooth/NFC are more for close range or device pairing, and WiFi isn't designed for inventory tags. Pretty confident it's B unless we misread the warehouse scenario. Anyone disagree?
Nah, it's B for sure. NFC looks tempting but it's mostly for close-range stuff, not bulk tracking like RFID. Agree?
C . Bluetooth gets used for device-to-device communication and could handle small setups if you pair scanners with handhelds. I know B is common for tags, but Bluetooth tracking is a thing in smaller environments too. Maybe I'm missing something here?
I don't think it's A, since NFC is super short range and not practical for scanning lots of items in a warehouse. B fits better for actual inventory tracking with tags. Maybe someone can clarify if there's a scenario where Bluetooth would make sense here?
Honestly, these protocol options are a nightmare, always feel like CompTIA wants to trip us up here. But for inventory tracking in a warehouse, B (RFID) just makes sense since it’s literally built for tagging and auto-scanning lots of items without line of sight. Bluetooth and NFC don’t scale as easily. Pretty sure B is it but open to hearing if someone thinks otherwise.
Saw similar on exam reports, B for inventory tracking.
