Access Point & Standort-Abdeckungsrechner
Berechnen Sie die Anzahl der benötigten Wireless Access Points, Switches und das PoE-Budget für Ihren Standort.
1. Venue area size
2. Structural layout walls
Select the wall material that best represents your layout.
3. Expected user density
Estimate the maximum density of active client devices.
Approximately 1 device per 50 square feet.
4. Network traffic usage
Select the network activity profile for connected clients.
Based on your area size (5000 sq ft) and coverage limit, we calculated a requirement of 3 APs for signal propagation. Accounting for high density capacity (100 concurrent devices at 5 Mbps each), we need 3 APs. The final design recommends 3 APs.

Understanding signal attenuation and capacity limits
Wireless networks are constrained by both physical coverage and client capacity. In large open spaces, a single high-power access point can project a signal over a wide radius, but a high concentration of users (such as in auditoriums or restaurants) will saturate the AP’s radio channels before coverage is lost. This tool calculates both metrics and recommends the higher AP count to prevent network congestion.
Präzise Netzwerkkapazitätsplanung
Die Planung der Wireless-Abdeckung erfordert die Berücksichtigung physischer Hindernisse, der Benutzerdichte und des Bandbreitenbedarfs. Dieser Rechner schätzt die benötigte Hardware für ein leistungsstarkes Gäste- oder Unternehmensnetzwerk.
Modellierte Schlüsselparameter
- Signaldämpfung durch Trockenbau-, Ziegel-, Glas- und Betonwände.
- Gerätedichtegrenzen für Standardbüros, High-Density-Hospitality- und Stadionumgebungen.
- Gesamtes Power over Ethernet (PoE)-Leistungsbudget und Switch-Port-Anforderungen.
