Not so long ago, replicating wireless coverage resembled a fun game with Sharpies on a large scale drawing of a floor plan. The goal was to see how many circles could be drawn to cover the whole drawing while ensuring that the circles all touched. As with all things technical, wireless planning and modeling has become much more sophisticated and exact. We now have the capability to ensure that you have a secure and scalable wireless plan that provides accurate coverage without the guessing game. Design 27 can provide you with a predictive wireless model that will illustrate the wireless coverage for your facility with cost effective implementation, whether that wireless system exists today or not. Our planning system allows for the unique characteristics of your building and needs accommodating areas of no coverage to maximum coverage without a hitch. The security of your company is dependent upon having and maintaining secure and reliable wireless coverage throughout your facility.
Wireless and mobile computing can be impacted by unreliable coverage, rouge devices, overcrowding of access points, and other issues. We work with each client to understand their specific needs on existing wireless networks and those just in the planning stages. Once the needs are established and the network is in place, we can conduct a site survey of your building to identify potential conflicts or challenges, which allows us to provide you with a report that is specific to your environment, highlighting appropriate placement and design considerations. Our comprehensive report will identify any conflicts or issues specific to your environment enabling you to correct those issues. This service can, and in many cases should, be done on a regular schedule to ensure that coverage remains stable and productive.
Oh – we still use the Sharpies. Only now we use them for doodling!
