Examples of Improper Installations
•
If you require three spatial stream coverage for the fastest throughput or if you want the best BYOD
experience, the AP 3600 and the AP 2600 with ClientLink 2.0 outperform the AP 3500. The AP
3600 can beamform to 802.11n clients, so it is important to understand the data requirements if you
mix the AP 1260, 3500, and 3600 in the same areas.

While site surveys are generally recommended, if the design is done at half power and Cisco RRM
is in place, a limited site survey may be adequate for smaller venues. In very challenging
environments such as train connectivity, Gas & Oil verticals, large hospitals, and so forth, you can
contract with the Cisco Advanced Services team to help or to perform your installation. Contact your
Cisco account team for more information.

The rule of thumb coverage plan is: one AP per 5,000 square feet for data and one AP per 3,000
square feet for voice and location services.

Some clients (especially older ones) do not support the UNII-2 extended client channels 100- 140;
therefore, if you have older clients, you may want to disable them in the DCA channel list.

The newer 802.11ac clients support these channels, and more clients are starting to support these

Examples of Improper Installations
It is very difficult to provide good Wi-Fi service with an improper installation, so use common sense
when mounting devices:
when mounting devices:
•
Keep the AP away from clutter and metal objects. (See
•
The AP should be level and secure so that it does not sway or move. (See
•
Try to locate the AP as close to the users as possible.
