1. Now my belief Is that my one AP device is only using one of the 13 available channels, and so all clients connected to that AP will be communicating across that same channel however many clients that may be ? –is this correct?
Correctt all the clients connecting to that AP will be using that channel
How many clients can connect? well you can connect as much you want but remenber that wireless is a shared medium so you are sharing the BW you got between ALL the devices connecting to that AP... so basically you dont want like 100 users connected to one AP... recommended maybe like 25 or 30 if you using voice then that number would drop to 15
2.If 1 is correct then hypothetically I could have 3 Aruba 93 access points stacked directly on top of each other on different non overlapping channels and increase the throughput and quantity of client devices threefold without experiencing any intererence? –do you agree?
Yes you can have 3 AP 93 in one room and they would no overlap one will pick channel 1 the other channel 6 and the other one chanel 11
3.Furthermore could you also have 13 Aruba 93 access points lined up accordingly so that each one is a separate channel 1,5,9,13,2,6,10,3,7,11,4,8,12 and spaced far enough apart so that say chanels 1,5,9,13 overlap each other but 1 is far enough away from channel 2 to avoid interference.? –is this correct
I dont undesrtand this quetions but illl try to asnwer to see if i got what you asking..
Well if you got one AP 93 on channel 1 and one ap 93 on channel 5 that would overlap and will have interference...
You normally just use channel 1 6 and 11 and thats it... you actuallly dont use channel 2 because that overlaps channel 1 and channel 6 and so on...
You would reallly want to have always if you cant dual band APS and send all the clietns you can to the 5ghz channel... 23 non overlapping channels = Win :)
Hope it helps
