There is not one standard area that an access point will cover. It all depends on the environment of your facility. In an ideal area with no objects to obstruct the RF signal, the coverage could extend to 20,000 square feet. On the other hand, a dense environment could only extend 5,000 square feet. Microwaves, mobile phones, external RF signals and Bluetooth wireless devices are all things that can affect your RF signal. In other words, the signal from each access point will be different from location to location. Other factors that are also considered are the number of concurrent users anticipated and desired data rates. Ryzex can perform an RF site survey to identify potential problems and maximize coverage.
