Wi-Fi Design & Survey

A network that looks right on paper and fails in the field is the most expensive kind of wireless project. We survey your actual RF environment — with professional-grade tools — so the design is built on data, not assumptions.

Why Surveys Matter

Most Wireless Problems Start at the Design Stage

Dead zones, poor roaming, dropped connections, and slow throughput in specific areas almost always trace back to access points placed without a survey. Concrete, metal, HVAC equipment, and glass all affect RF propagation in ways a floor plan cannot predict. Our engineers walk your facility and measure what’s actually happening before we recommend a single AP placement.

Our Survey Tools

Survey Tools & Technology

Ekahau Survey Pro with Sidekick 2

Industry-leading survey platform with dedicated hardware that captures calibrated signal data as our engineers walk your facility. Used for predictive design, passive surveys, and active validation.

AirMagnet Survey Pro

Active and passive survey tool capturing signal strength, SNR, channel utilization, data rate distribution, and roaming boundary data across your entire footprint.

AirMagnet Spectrum XT

Full RF spectrum analyzer that identifies non-Wi-Fi interference sources — microwave leakage, Bluetooth devices, DECT phones, radar, and competing RF — that standard Wi-Fi tools will miss entirely.

Types of Surveys

Our Survey Capabilities

Passive Survey

We listen to the existing RF environment without transmitting — capturing what’s already in your space before we make any recommendations.

Active Survey

We transmit from our own hardware and measure how a planned or existing network performs throughout the facility.

Predictive Survey

We model your network in Ekahau before installation — validating AP placements virtually and refining the design before a device is mounted.

All Three Wi-Fi Frequency Bands

2.4 GHz

Broad coverage and legacy device support. Prone to congestion in dense environments — we identify saturation and co-channel interference before it becomes an operational problem.

5 GHz

The performance band for modern enterprise wireless. We design for high-throughput and seamless roaming across your floor plan.

6 GHz (Wi-Fi 6E)

A clean, uncongested spectrum delivering maximum capacity for high-density environments. We design and validate 6 GHz deployments with the same rigor as legacy bands.

Steps

A Complete Deliverable Package

Band-specific heat maps — signal coverage, SNR, channel utilization, data rates, roaming boundaries
Written findings report — performance risks, interference sources, design recommendations
AP placement plan with mounting locations, heights, and orientations
Post-installation validation showing how the installed network compares to the design
Baseline documentation your IT team uses for troubleshooting and future expansion

CIO Note: This deliverable package is not just useful at deployment. It becomes the documented baseline your team references for every network issue, expansion, and vendor conversation that follows.
