Solution: How to deploy wireless projects in high-density venues? Six AP installation ideas for your reference!

Various large venues, such as stadiums, exhibition centers, train station waiting halls, airport terminals, etc., are characterized by large space, no ready-made installation conditions, but low wireless signal attenuation; a large number of Internet terminals, but a single terminal has a small Internet traffic. The difficulty of networking lies in the large space, inconvenient installation, and a large number of connected devices.

Four major pain points
Inconvenient installation: Most sites do not have ready-made power supply and wiring conditions; AP points need to be confirmed according to site conditions
A large number of Internet terminals: There are a large number of connected devices in the scene, and the number of terminals can reach hundreds or even more
Simple environment: Few walls, devices, and partitions; Low wireless signal attenuation

Internet traffic is not large but of various types: the main terminal is a mobile phone, and the applications include web pages, social software, WeChat voice, video calls, short videos, live streaming, mobile games, and a large number of centralized social uploads
AP installation ideas
Design 1: Installation on the edge of the venue

Simple and convenient installation
Good coverage effect
The installation height is relatively low, and the audience can easily touch it. It is recommended to take necessary camouflage measures

Design 2: Ceiling suction installation


Best coverage
Sufficient height and not easily accessible to users
Relatively complex installation
Difficult to maintain later

Design 3: Install under the seat

Reduce the coverage range of a single AP and reduce interference
Invisible and aesthetically pleasing
The installation height is low, more installations are required, and it is easy to be damaged by accidental touch
The signal coverage model changes with the number of people and is relatively uncontrollable



Design 4: Use seat guardrail for installation

Easy and convenient installation
Good coverage
Lower installation height, easy for spectators to touch
Incomplete coverage may occur due to the location of the guardrail on site

Design 5: Fence pole installation

Easy and convenient installation
Good coverage
Higher installation height, not easy to touch by mistake
The coverage range depends on the height of the pole, which is relatively close


Design 6: On-site light pole installation

Sufficient height and out of reach of users
Cannot install too many APs on the same pole
Poles are scattered, few in number, and few available points
