Site survey wifi
WHY?
A wireless survey is crucial for ensuring the optimal performance and reliability of a Wi-Fi network for several reasons:
- Identify coverage zones
- Capacity planning
- Roaming optimization
- Mitigating interference
- Optimizing access point placement
Overall, conducting a wireless survey is essential for designing, deploying, and maintaining a robust and reliable Wi-Fi network that meets the performance requirements of users while ensuring security and compliance with regulatory standards.
We propose 3 KINDS of surveys:
Predictive survey
Based on the floor plans and the parameters specified in the RFI document, a simulation is carried out using our design software based on RF modelling. The goal? Determine the number, type and approximate location of access points. The antennas, mounting hardware and other infrastructure required for the installation are also studied.
The survey report provides an overview of the required coverage areas and their respective radio frequency and capacity requirements.
On-site pre-installation survey
After the preliminary analysis, the QUANT ICT team goes directly to your building. Its mission: test the hypotheses studied against the situation on the ground!
- What signal strength is required?
- Are there any risks of interference?
- What are the best places to install Wi-Fi antennas?
- What about the signal-to-noise ratio?
- Which roaming path?
- What about channel usage and airtime?
- Will the current or future cabling change?
A second survey report is drawn up on site. QUANT ICT then carries out the installation of your WLAN with great care and expertise. It's time to meet the most stringent requirements!
Validation survey (WLAN Audit)
Post-deployment surveys are conducted after Wi-Fi infrastructure installation to validate the network's performance and identify any issues. These surveys ensure that the deployed network meets the desired performance criteria and helps in troubleshooting any connectivity problems.
