Antenna selection

    I'm currently reviewing plans for a wireless deployment for a warehouse with extremely narrow ailes, and densely packed shelves.  I'm interested to hear folks ideas for antenna selection.  

     

    Ailes run about 120 yards, and are about 4 yards wide.  Products on both sides of aisle.  It looks like this:

     

    |Products |ailse| products|ailse|products|......

     

    Directional antennas at the top of each aisle, for each aisle?

    Sector/Directional antennas at the end of each aisle attempting to cover multiple aisles?

     

    Thoughts?

    Quite Frankly, you can use any access point that has downtilt Omnidirectional antennas like the AP105, 115, 135 or 225 to accomplish this.  http://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/WLAN-Professionals-Summit-2014/Hostile-Environments-Wireless-LAN-Design-for-Warehouses/gpm-p/139077#M3
