What is a wireless site survey?

A wireless site survey is a comprehensive assessment of your wireless environment. It involves measuring, analyzing, and optimizing various factors that affect your WiFi network, such as signal strength, interference, coverage, capacity, and security.

A wireless site survey can help you:

  • Design a WiFi network that suits your site layout, building materials, and user requirements.
  • Choose the best locations, types, and configurations of wireless access points and antennas.
  • Ensure optimal performance, reliability, and scalability of your WiFi network.
  • Identify and resolve any issues or bottlenecks that may affect your WiFi network.
  • Enhance the security and compliance of your wireless data.

At Digital DataComm, we offer professional wireless site surveys for businesses of all sizes and industries throughout Utah. We have the expertise, experience, and equipment to help you achieve your WiFi goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of wireless site surveys do we offer?

We offer three types of wireless site surveys: predictive, passive, and active. Each type has its own advantages and purposes, depending on your needs and budget.

Predictive Surveys

A predictive survey is a computer-based simulation of your wireless environment. It uses software tools and mathematical models to estimate the signal coverage and performance of your WiFi network, based on your site floor plan, building materials, and access point specifications. A predictive survey can help you:

  • Plan and budget for a new WiFi network or an upgrade of an existing one.
  • Get a quick and cost-effective overview of your wireless environment.
  • Identify the optimal number and placement of access points and antennas.

Passive Surveys

A passive survey is a field-based measurement of your wireless environment. It involves walking around your site with a handheld device that collects data from the existing WiFi network and other sources of interference. A passive survey can help you:

  • Verify and validate the results of a predictive survey.
  • Assess the current state and performance of your WiFi network.
  • Detect and eliminate any sources of interference or noise.

Active Surveys

An active survey is a field-based test of your wireless environment. It involves connecting to the WiFi network and performing various tasks, such as uploading and downloading files, streaming video, or making voice calls, to evaluate the quality and capacity of your WiFi network. An active survey can help you:

  • Measure and optimize the throughput, latency, jitter, and packet loss of your WiFi network.
  • Test and troubleshoot the functionality and compatibility of your WiFi network.
  • Ensure the satisfaction and productivity of your WiFi users.

Digital DataComm has saved my bacon more than a few times. Craig and his team came in and put our IT house in order. The depth of their knowledge and understanding is truly impressive. We never threw anything at them that they hadn't already tackled multiple times before. Due completely to their help we were able to put a plan in place to support our growth and protect our data. I think they are as paranoid about protecting our data as we are. We consider them our partners when it comes to all of our IT needs. My favorite part is I no longer have to provide tech support to our staff. Digital DataComm takes care of that too. This has allowed me time to focus on my real work.

I received a call from our Comcast representative asking for an update on our project plans to perfect our robust redundant Internet and I let them know that we were working with Digital Data-Comm on advancing the project. The Comcast representative mentioned that they have worked many times with the Digital Data-comm team and holds the team in high esteem. I have recommended Digital Data-Comm on many occasions because of their wide depth of expertise, quick response time day and night, exceptional follow-through, attentive to details, building exceptionally reliable systems, and they good people to work with.

Digital DataComm is creative in finding affordable solutions to fit our budgeting and with their breadth of experience, he quickly eliminates solutions that can be costly mistakes. Digital DataComm did most of the original data infrastructure design, implementation, and plays a key role determining the direction for most new technology implementations for over the last 10 years for Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions. Their background pulls from a wealth of experience in advanced systems that has saved us doing costly trial and error. I highly recommend using this valuable resource.

Digital Data has been our IT support firm for the past 3+ years. Prior to that we had tried a full-time & part time on site IT director both of which were less than satisfactory but overall more expensive which would have included the physical facility allocations. The very best part of Digital Data is the competence and experience of their personnel both on Network, PC and MAC. They are always available during business hours from 8-5 with emergency after hours assistance if needed. Digital Data provides weekly site visits and in person help which was not provided by our last IT remote provider. We consider them new friends and their willingness when we are stressed with issues is so much appreciated and needed.
