  • 1.  Wireless Coverage Overkill?

    Hi,


    Just looking some advice on planning a new floor space.  It is all open planned space and I have attached the layout and what I was thinking for AP coverage.  AP Model 535 to future proof and use of high dense areas (probably overkill but not much more expensive than the model below).

     

    The total floor space here is for 92 staff but we have to allow up to 3 devices per person so a client total of potentially 300.

     

    Update: I have removed the plans for now as adjusting slightly will re-add 

     

    Thanks

    I should have mentioned that the rough area (square footage) is 4500 ft -  This would mean about 30-35 between each access point on that map.

     

    Because of the potential amount of clients and the use of video conferencing, VoIP, and zoom/teams video calling I thought it was better to air on the side of caution with 5 APs - but not too many to cause interference.  There are 3 floors in total all lay out is the same so do you think this would be sufficient for the space or be a good starting point?

     

    Thanks
