Predictive Wi-Fi Survey

A predictive Wi-Fi survey plans and designs a wireless network without physically visiting the location. Using specialist software, we model the wireless environment based on floor plans, building materials, and other relevant information.

Predictive surveys are valuable in the early planning stages of a deployment, helping estimate the number of access points needed, optimal placement locations, and potential challenges before installation begins.

AP on a Stick Survey

An AP on a Stick survey places a temporary access point on a pole or stand at specific locations within the site to assess and optimise coverage and performance. This approach simulates actual network conditions to gather accurate, reliable data.

Particularly useful in complex environments where signal behaviour is affected by building materials, obstructions, and RF interference. Typically conducted during the deployment phase to ensure access points are strategically placed.

Post-Deployment

Validation Survey

A validation survey verifies and validates the performance and coverage of a Wi-Fi network after deployment. The primary objective is to ensure the network meets design requirements and provides the expected level of service to end-users.

It helps identify and address any issues that arose during deployment, ensuring the network delivers optimal performance. By validating after installation, network administrators can fine-tune the network for a smooth and robust wireless experience.

Hybrid Wi-Fi Survey

A Hybrid survey combines both Predictive and AP on a Stick methods to guarantee near-perfect results. We design your network electronically then follow up with an on-site survey to check for interference, dead zones, and real-world variance.

Ideal for large rollouts: we capture coverage patterns on-site in representative areas, then conduct predictive surveys for the remainder, giving you the accuracy of on-site with the scale of electronic.

The Hybrid Wi-Fi Survey

For large rollouts and complex buildings, our Hybrid approach gives you the accuracy of an on-site survey combined with the cost-effectiveness of electronic planning. You get the benefits of both methods and near-perfect results.

For new buildings, we can start electronically as soon as a floor plan is available, then check for interference once construction is complete.
For rollouts of multiple buildings, we survey one area on-site to understand signal and interference, then replicate electronically across all similar areas. A brilliant cost-effective solution.
You get full coverage analysis, rigorous AP placement planning, and the confidence that comes from validating the design against real-world conditions.
