Determining customer requirements

It all starts with the customers - and determining what their needs really are. In most cases customers want a WLAN network in the 2.4 GHz frequency range, allowing employees and visitors wireless connection to the company network and the Internet throughout offices and meeting rooms. Next the question arises of whether a radio frequency site survey by a specialist needs to be performed. Because of the considerable expense involved, the radio frequency site survey is frequently skipped; instead the APs are positioned at customer discretion and in consideration of the facility's spatial arrangement.

However in case of complex buildings or if the customer requires a high-performance network with continuous coverage and VoWLAN-readiness, a radio frequency site survey is indispensable.
