Wireless Site Survey
Whether your wireless network isn’t providing the Quality of Service it used to, or you’re starting new construction, a wireless site survey will determine the network solution that’s right for you. Site surveys allow us to determine the proper plan to fit your wireless needs.
Findings from the survey will help plan for:
- Interference from outside sources.
- AP (access point) placement for equal distribution.
- Load management
- Floor layout
Predictive Site Survey
A predictive survey utilizes software and RF algorithms to determine the best placement for your AP equipment. This type of survey is useful when a building is still being constructed. Using a CAD or PDF file, the software can predict AP placement.
Benefits of a predictive survey:
- Allows a network plan to be drafted while the building is still under construction.
- Can be used to obtain the budget required for deployment.
Onsite Survey
An onsite survey is very useful when planning an upgrade to an existing network, or after a remodel. This type of survey is more detailed as the technician will be testing with a live network. These tests will identify weak or overloaded areas. Once the trouble areas are found, we will determine if new equipment needs to be installed or wireless device channels need to be changed.
Onsite surveys are more in-depth but yield better results for existing hardware deployments.
