Excalibur Integrated Systems Services: Wireless Networking
WE DO MORE WIRELESS, BETTER, FOR MORE CUSTOMERS
Wireless Networking was previously considered the
“Smoke and Mirrors” of modern connectivity; today it has become pervasive.
Restaurants, Book Stores, hotels and other customer-facing businesses have found
that Wireless attracts customers and enhances their technology friendly image.
Excalibur has found that wireless can accelerate your
retail, manufacturing or warehousing operation beyond what you may have ever
imagined. Our many years of experience can make your existing wireless
infrastructure solid, resilient, and the critical work resource you need it to
be.
DESIGN SERVICES - The Right Tools, the Right Experience
A Wireless Installation will be only as successful as
the thoroughness of the Site Survey. We have found, time and time again, that
installations that have been done without the survey typically fail, or
encounter unforeseen delays and snags. If you only need one Access Point for
your office, that will work well with almost anything. If, however, you need to
cover hundreds of thousands of square feet in your factory, or millions of
square feet in your warehouses, or a college campus, then you need a
professional site survey.
We recently found a site that had over 100 Access
Points to cover less that 500,000 square feet. Even after turning the power down
considerably, the hand-helds could still see 15-20 AP’s. Our engineer onsite
suggested to us that 20 Access Points would have covered perfectly. The huge
number of unneeded access points would have paid for 10 site surveys, and
minimized downtime.
We cannot emphasize the value of a properly done Site
Survey enough. They can, and should, become the standard by which the network
should be judged. That report becomes the benchmark. Later, should something
change, or coverage become a problem, you will know where you were before, and
where you are now.
Our Site Surveys are performed with industry standard ,
state-of-the-art tools such as AirMagnet Survey and Planner, AirMagnet Laptop
Analyzer, AirMagnet Spectrum Analyzer, and other tools that allow plotting
signal coverages, link speeds, and AP Placements. |
