Business driver for wireless assessment:
Site surveys ensure a successful and efficient wireless network deployment. MSPStream helps organizations looking to deploy new networks or enhance existing ones using wireless technologies to assess the environment for optimal wireless network design, management and potential security concerns.
– New installations – MSPStream determines capital investment and obtain the number and preferred location of access points for the best coverage before the initial deployment
– Existing installations – MSPStream verifies the number of access points required versus the number actually deployed and validate their location to ensure optimal performance for all end users
– Ongoing optimization – MSPStream ensures optimal performance by conducting periodic site surveys in order to account for changes in the Wi-Fi environment
MSPStream’s site assessment service uses automated software and industry best practices to locate and map authorized and unauthorized wireless access points, review any corporate access point deployment, analyze the environment for interference, design and plan a robust Wi-Fi infrastructure.

MSPStream will deliver the following:
– Report identifying recommended AP installation locations
– Site survey containing individual floor plans that indicate AP mounting recommendations, sources of interference and areas of concern/out of scope including survey files
