Wireless Site Survey Small Office
Wireless Site Survey Small Office
Description
Wireless Site Survey Report detailing nominal Access Point locations and the
corresponding proposed Wireless Coverage Areas (Heat Map)
Analysis Activities
Design Activities
Develop Site Survey Report - Based on the collection of data from the Site Survey CSA will
develop a Wireless Site Survey report that identifies the proposed Wireless Access Point
locations overlaid on Customer provided floor plans (RF heat map) with the following
information:
o RSSI (Signal Strength);
o Signal to noise Ratio (SNR);
o Network Issues This will display areas that may have issues based on Coverage
Requirements configured;
o Channel Plan (Planning);
o Client Data Rate ( Predicted);
Constraints
CSA's Wireless Site Survey for 'Small Office' is limited to a survey coverage area not
exceeding 500m2 and is limited to a single building only;
CSA's Wireless Site Survey is based on conducting an on-site RF wireless survey. In certain
circumstances conducting an on-site RF survey may not be practical or achievable for various
reasons such as:
o Site is not in a fully constructed state;
o Site is in a remote location;
o Accessibility to the site is difficult to obtain;
In such circumstances the Customer may elect for CSA to perform a predictive wireless
survey using a computer model rather than an on-site RF survey. Customer is to advise CSA
at the commencement of the engagement if a predictive survey is required. It is understood
CSA Proposal Document Copyright 2015 Commercial in Confidence
by Customer that a predictive survey is limited in its ability to accurately model the
environment and a predictive survey will not identify the following items:
o Sources of wireless interference;
o Physical irregularities or constraints requiring visual inspections;
o unique or complex architectural characteristics of the building will not be modelled,
Consideration of site cabling conditions and availability;
Accuracy of measured coverage will be dependent upon CSAs ability to access all coverage
areas;
Surveys will be completed with Ekahau software and Enterasys 3620 Access Points where
customer is unable to provide alternative access points (autonomous or with the necessary
control mechanism) pre-configured for survey purposes;
All in-scope workshop, design and as-built configuration documentation, diagrams and
information registers, procedural documentation, training activities and testing activities for
this service will be completed to CSA's standard level of detail unless otherwise agreed in
advance;
Where possible CSA will complete work remotely to minimise travel and expenses;
Assumptions
Should CSA determine that the extent of the wireless site survey is greater than that of a
'Small Office' building exceeding 500m2 then CSA will charge the Site Survey at the
appropriate building size;
The survey will be conducted within a single continuous engagement;
Wireless Survey Questionnaire has been completed prior to sale, in the event this has not
been completed it will be provided and must be completed by the customer prior to
scheduling of this service.
Excluded
Customer Responsibilities
Customer to email an electronic copy of the floor plan to CSA prior to Pre-Survey
Consultation meeting. Electronic floor plans should depict all coverage locations with
accurate scale and in standard graphic of document format (JPG, BMP, PNG, PDF);

within scope of the survey;
Providing access to sites, buildings, and equipment in a timely manner as required;
Completing Wireless Survey Questionnaire accurately prior to requesting the service to be
scheduled by CSA;
Providing any required information before and during the project in a timely manner
(including but not limited to: IP addressing, login credentials, licensing and support
contracts, etc.);
Actively participating in any in-scope workshop sessions, project & coordination meetings,
operational familiarisation sessions, handover sessions;
