• Building Materials 

Radio penetration is greatly influenced by the building material used in construction. For 

example, drywall construction allows greater range than concrete blocks. Metal or steel 

construction is a barrier to radio signals. 

 

 

The system architecture options of the wireless station and GoldStream Access Points 

provide for a variety of coverage alternatives and flexibility. The system can be designed 

to provide a wide coverage area with minimal overlap or coverage with heavy overlap. 

The latter improves system performance and protection against downtime in the event of 

a component failure.  By arranging the  GoldStream  Access Points so the overlap in 

coverage area is minimized, a large area can be covered with minimal system cost. The 

total bandwidth available to each mobile station will depend on the amount of data each 

mobile station desires to transfer and the number of stations  located in  each cell. 

Seamless roaming is supported as a mobile station moves in and out of range of each 

GoldStream Access Point, thereby maintaining a constant connection to the wired LAN. 

Each device in the radio network must be configured with the same Service Set Identifier 

(SSID) to  provide the roaming capability.  Multiple systems can operate in the same 

vicinity. The architecture provides multiple channels, which can coexist in the same area 

with virtually no interference to each other. In  this mode, each system must be 

configured with different  Service Set Identifiers (SSID) and different channels, which 

prevent clients from roaming to GoldStream Access Points of a different wireless system.
