Designing for the AP-515

  • 1.  Designing for the AP-515

    Posted Feb 27, 2019 10:25 AM

    I am part of a WLAN team that will soon be creating RF designs for installing the Aruba AP-515. We use AirMAgnet to generate the heatmaps and AP placement maps. The current version of AirMagnet does not include the AP-515 (or any other 802.11ax AP). Is there an 802.11ac version of the same AP that may be suitable to use for RF designs? I am most interested in the RF patterns of the 2.4 and 5Ghz bands. Any assistance is appreciated.

    You can use the (I)AP-315 for planning purposes. Coverage is almost identical.
