WiFi and Enterprise Wireless Networks

This category brings together DataRoad's content on the wireless network installation process in businesses, focusing on the two phases that determine a project's success: the technical site survey and the actual installation execution. During the survey phase, the DataRoad team assesses the floor plan, identifies physical obstacles to signal propagation, and defines the number, type and location of the access points required to ensure uniform coverage across the entire area, with no dead zones. During the execution phase, the installation includes running network cabling to each access point (the wireless component always depends on a good wired infrastructure), configuring segmented networks by user profile, and final coverage and performance testing before handover to the client. The articles gathered here also detail the equipment and brands that DataRoad typically works with, and the criteria used to select them according to the scale and demands of each project. For the same service focusing on the requirements of warehouses, open-plan offices and larger buildings, please also see Enterprise Wireless Networks.
