Professional planning, validation and optimisation of corporate Wi-Fi networks. A stable Wi-Fi network does not happen by chance. Building layout, usage, device density, sources of interference and roaming requirements all influence the optimal number and positioning of access points. Start enquiry Why Service levels Process Outcomes Required info Professional Services Contact Why a Wi-Fi site survey matters Planning certainty instead of guesswork. You get a reliable basis for access point quantity, placement, mounting and later validation at your customer site. 01 Planning certainty You receive a realistic assessment of the required access points and their optimal positioning. 02 Stable coverage You see how signal strength, signal-to-noise ratio, channel overlap and floors affect coverage. 03 Practical decision basis You have a technical basis for procurement, mounting, configuration and later validation. 04 Better user experience You align Wi-Fi planning with usage, client density, voice, video, scanners, IoT and guest Wi-Fi. New building Renovation Expansion Optimization Office School Warehouse Production Hotel Clinic Outdoor area Service levels Which site survey fits your project? The three service levels take you from an initial estimate to on-site validation under real-world conditions. Level 1 Virtual rough planning For your initial technical and commercial assessment based on the supplied building plans. Determination of the required number of access points Planning based on the supplied building plans Ideal for early project and budget clarification Level 2 Virtual detailed planning with report For you when you need AP locations and graphical evaluations in addition to the required quantity. All items from Level 1 AP locations and graphical information Signal strength, channel overlap, SNR and further evaluations Level 3 On-site survey / validation For projects where you need to account for real building conditions, existing third-party Wi-Fi and local sources of interference. All items from Levels 1 and 2 Measurement directly on site under real-world conditions Consideration of existing Wi-Fi networks and local interference sources Process and project scope From initial discussion to documentation. You keep the process clear at every stage: capture requirements, define scope, carry out planning or measurement, and hand over the results cleanly. Consultation You clarify the requirements for your customer’s Wi-Fi infrastructure with us. Scope definition We jointly define the areas to be surveyed, conditions and tools to be used. Site survey You receive virtual planning or an on-site survey of the agreed areas with Ekahau. Location recommendation You get the recommended access point and antenna locations marked in the plan. Final review We review the results with you and hand over the report. Documentation You receive documentation based on Ekahau Site Survey, depending on the commissioned service scope. Outcomes What you receive as a result. You receive project-specific results and documentation that serve as a decision basis for procurement and implementation. AP recommendation You receive a recommendation for the number and placement of access points. Graphical heatmaps You get heatmaps and evaluations, depending on the selected service level. Signal quality You see information on signal strength, signal-to-noise ratio and coverage. Channel overlap You receive an analysis of relevant overlaps and recommendations for optimization. Documentation You get a report based on Ekahau Site Survey, depending on project scope. Implementation basis You have a basis for procurement, mounting, configuration and later validation. Required information What we need from you and your customer. The better your initial information, the more precisely scope, effort and technical planning can be determined. Basics Building plans with scale, ideally as PDF or DWG Marked areas and floors to be surveyed Planned usage, number of users and relevant end devices per area Information on existing access points and third-party Wi-Fi networks Special requirements Voice, video, scanners, IoT, guest Wi-Fi or high client density Outdoor areas, warehouses, production, clinics, schools or hotel environments Ceiling heights, wall materials and mounting restrictions Roaming, security and performance requirements Expandable Professional Services From planning to implementation. The Wi-Fi site survey creates your planning basis. Configuration, installation, commissioning and further adjustments can be offered separately. More than planning In addition to the Wi-Fi site survey, you can offer further activities as separate Professional Services. This allows you to support your customer from planning through to technical implementation. Firewall, switch and controller configurations Wi-Fi SSID, VLAN, security and roaming configurations Installation, implementation and technical support remotely or on site Test scenarios, validation and optimization after commissioning Next step Submit your request with plans and requirements. Send us your plans and requirements. We will review the appropriate service scope and clarify whether virtual planning or an on-site survey makes sense. Start request Download PDF
