Wireless Surveys
Wireless Site Surveys
Wireless site surveys (also known as wireless network site surveys or WiFi surveys) are comprehensive assessments of a location to plan and optimise a wireless network. In simple terms, it’s like creating a blueprint for your WiFi network before or even after installation to ensure strong, reliable coverage everywhere.
By measuring signal strengths, mapping out coverage, and identifying sources of interference, a wireless site survey provides the data needed to design a WiFi network that meets your organisation’s needs for coverage, capacity, and performance

All installations are carried out by certified, DBS checked engineers with experience across business, education, healthcare, and industrial sectors.
How is a Wireless Site Survey Conducted?
First, requirements and building floor plans are reviewed to understand coverage goals, user numbers and specific performance needs such as video calls or scanners.
Next, an on site walkthrough is carried out using specialised WiFi survey equipment to measure signal strength, interference and physical obstacles throughout the building.
The collected data is then analysed using software to create heatmaps showing signal quality. From these results, a detailed WiFi network design is created, specifying the optimal number, placement and configuration of access points to provide full coverage and reliable performance.
Ekahau Wireless Site Survey Tool
One of the most advanced tools we rely on is the Ekahau WiFi survey system, which has become the global standard for WiFi planning and design.
Using Ekahau Pro software together with the Ekahau Sidekick; a portable, high precision WiFi scanner; our engineers can walk through your building and instantly capture detailed data on signal strength.
This technology allows us to generate accurate heatmaps that show exactly where your wireless network is strong and where it needs improvement.
By using advanced survey tools like Ekahau, we are able to speed up the survey process, improve accuracy, and deliver a network design that works exactly as intended.
