Wireless & backhaul

Coverage you can prove, not coverage you hope for.

Most wireless problems are design problems that got discovered after the access points were already on the ceiling. We survey first.

In-building & campus wirelessAruba · Cisco Meraki

Designed from a real site survey — construction materials, shelving, occupancy density and the interference already in the building all change the answer. Enterprise access points run concurrent 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz radios with multiple transmit and receive streams, a dedicated scanning radio for radio resource management and wireless intrusion detection, and integrated Bluetooth Low Energy for location services.

The dedicated security radio matters more than the headline throughput number: it is what lets the system see rogue access points and interference without stealing airtime from your users.

Carrier-grade backhaulMimosa · LigoWave · MikroTik

Where trenching fiber between buildings is impractical, blocked by a right-of-way, or simply not worth the money, licensed and unlicensed point-to-point links carry the traffic instead — at throughput and availability figures you can put in an SLA.

Common on campuses, industrial yards, dealership groups and any site where the two buildings are close enough to see each other and far enough apart to make a trench expensive.

Warehouse & industrialHard RF environments

Racking, metal inventory, moving equipment and high ceilings make warehouses the hardest wireless environment there is. Scanner and forklift-terminal coverage has to hold at floor level and at height, through aisles that change shape whenever inventory does.

Representative access point specification

Four radios including concurrent 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz with four transmit and four receive streams — data rates up to 1.733 Gbps on 5 GHz and 800 Mbps on 2.4 GHz for 2.5 Gbps aggregate. A dedicated dual-band scanning and security radio drives dynamic radio resource management (RRM) and wireless intrusion detection (WIDS), with an integrated Bluetooth Low Energy radio for location and beaconing.

Ten internal modular high-efficiency planar inverted-F omnidirectional antennas (PIFA): four at 6 dBi peak gain for the 5 GHz radio, four at 4 dBi peak gain for 2.4 GHz, and dedicated antennas for the scanning and BLE radios. Exact model selection depends on survey results, mounting height and the ceiling you are working with.
