Up to 30 MU-MIMO clients.
The first part of this testing ended with ten MU-MIMO clients – Acer Aspire E15 laptops. The
throughput test was then repeated for each AP with 20 and then with 30 MU-MIMO clients – all
Acer Aspire E15 laptops, each operating on a single spatial stream – to see how MU-MIMO
throughput performance scales with double and triple the client density.

– with the same clients: first 10, then 20 and then 30 Acer Aspire E15 laptops, each operating on a
single spatial stream. Throughput was first measured with the laptops’ Multi-User MIMO support
disabled. Then MU-MIMO was enabled on all clients and a second throughput test was run. The
individual results of these tests are shown in the table below. All values are Mbps.
