Coverage and Installation Planning
Note: The following section provides information required for planning the VAP installation on a
single floor. In a multi-tier installation, this procedure is performed for each individual floor.
single floor. In a multi-tier installation, this procedure is performed for each individual floor.
The maximal coverage area of each VAP is affected by the density and type of environment
being covered. Therefore, it is recommended to determine the location in two phases:
being covered. Therefore, it is recommended to determine the location in two phases:
Plan the
ideal location of each VAP in order to achieve complete coverage of the floor.
Select the
exact location according to the location feasibility, where each VAP unit may be wall
or desk mounted and an option for an external antenna is available.
The supplied services (wireless only or Ethernet and wireless) depend on the jack to which the
VAP is connected:
VAP is connected:
If the jack supports an active Ethernet connection, the VAP will distribute LAN traffic along
with the wireless service. (See section 4.3).
If the jack is not currently active (not connected to an Ethernet switch), the VAP will distribute
only the wireless services.
This section provides information on coverage criteria in various types of environments (Open,
Standard, Dense and Merged) and provides rules-of-thumb for various installations of the VAPs.

Types of Environments
This section describes the different types of installation environments and provides guidelines for
best coverage of each type of space.
best coverage of each type of space.
The coverage guidelines in this section are conservative “rule of thumb” estimates of RF
coverage per VAP, meant to be used in scenarios in which detailed designs are not performed.
When the coverage layout is designed, the coverage per VAP is expected to increase by up to
33%. Coverage estimates in this section assume 25% overlap between the coverage areas of
neighboring VAPs to ensure robust, full coverage throughout the enterprise with no “dead
zones”.
