Capacity Planning

Instructions: This Matrix is design to identify the bandwidth, uplink and the number of required MeshAP for a given area. In the event that you have a very complex area you can divide your area in as many parts. The matrix can simply be copy and pasted to any part of the spread sheet to how many areas you have. The Name and Abbreviation follow the text MeshAP Capacity Planning. The Blue numbers are calculated for you. Please note: that this is a hypothesis and you are testing this hypothesis out. If you discover problems please contact Don Moskaluk at don@moskaluk.com
