Cisco Adaptive wIPS Introduction
The above charts outline the circular square footage than can be covered by a single wIPS mode Access
Point in each frequency band and each type of environment. These metrics can provide a baseline as how
many wIPS Access Points are needed to cover a specific floor area. These charts were created using
MatLab simulation software assuming an attacking device outputting 15dBm of transmit power. The
receive sensitivity used this calculation represents the lowest common denominator between Cisco’s line
of Access Points that support wIPS.

Location of wIPS Access Points
The physical deployment of wIPS Mode Access Points is based on the end goal of providing pervasive
monitoring across the entire WLAN infrastructure. To this end, wIPS mode APs are placed using two
general guidelines. First, deploy wIPS access points around the periphery of your physical location to
ensure adequate monitoring of attacks being launched from outside the building. This does not mean that
wIPS mode Access Points should be deployed in the physical extremities of the building but instead they
should be appropriately positioned to provide detection coverage to the extremities. Second, deploy
wIPS access points throughout the center of the building to ensure complete detection of attacks
launched from within the physical building.

The physical mounting location of a wIPS Access Point should be based on the same best practices used
when mounting data serving Access Points. Following these conventions, it is important that wIPS
Access Point antennas are not hidden behind heavy building materials or placed above drop ceilings. In
the case that an Access Point is mounted above the ceiling, specific external antennas should be used to
bring antenna leads into the same physical space that will be monitored.
