When considering a wireless network, it pays to consult an expert to determine access points and device types, test for RF interference and design the optimum solution. Zones can help you take the risk out of wireless LAN installations with Professional Site Surveys. In most cases, the best course of action is to bring in experienced professionals to conduct the site survey and install equipment and Zones can arrange that for you!
To conduct a Site Survey, you define the installation with the consultant. This includes identifying the space to be covered, the devices to be used, and the interface between the wireless and wired LAN. Then the Placement of access points and antennas is determined to maintain the maximum amount of coverage and signal strength. Then you check for RF interference. There are many devices and sources of interference to take into account while developing the design. Tests vary depending on size and complexity of proposed system requirements. Test equipment requirements vary from site computer analysis to full blown spectral analysis. Lastly, we effectively and completely convey results of survey to you to allow the most effective product solution. Wireless Network products are available from Zones.
