接入点与场所覆盖估算器
计算您的场所所需的无线接入点、交换机数量及 PoE 功率预算。
估算您的接入点需求
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.
精准的网络容量规划
规划无线覆盖需要对物理障碍物、用户密度和应用带宽需求进行建模。本计算器可帮助估算构建高性能访客或企业网络所需的设备。
建模的关键参数
- 信号穿过石膏板、砖块、玻璃和混凝土墙时的衰减。
- 适用于标准办公室、高密度酒店及款待业、以及体育场馆环境的设备密度限制。
- 以太网供电 (PoE) 总功率预算及交换机端口需求。
