If you have a client with a poor connection, they will only be able to receive at the speed that their link to the AP will allow (so it could be you have a client that can only do 25 Mbps which would be really bad). That 750 Mbps is also the best case scenario, if your AP has to repeat itself to get the information to a client you are going to loose bandwidth to that. Smaller channel size means less throughput. So if you are in a populated area with lots of interference or if you need to reach out to further clients you will want to run a smaller channel size. Wider channels do not reach as far and are more susceptible to noise.

You can use WiFi Interop, but then it’s much harder to reuse frequencies on the same tower or in the same area, but WiFi Interop will have lower latency numbers and be able to dedicate almost all the 750 Mbps to the download if there is that kind of demand.Īlso, that 750 Mbps is frequently when the AP is set to it’s widest channel width. (75% of the airtime being dedicated to download because most customers only download stuff and upload isn’t very important for most use cases). Mimosa is working on 75/25 right now so it should be hitting release in the next couple months. So if you had a Mimosa AP that was using SRS 50/50, at most you would see 375 (1/2 of 750) Mbps of traffic going in one or another direction. If you are using what is called a flexible frame or a non-synchronized system (normal 802.11) then the AP will dedicate more airtime to whichever it thinks needs it more (download or upload). If you are using a fixed frame technology (SRS in Mimosa) a portion of the airtime has to be set aside for Download and Upload even if there is very little traffic going in that direction. So let’s say we have an AP that on the box says it can do 750 Mbps, what you will actually see will probably vary from that number.įrequently that 750 Mbps is the aggregate throughput of the AP, so that would be if both Upload and Download are maxed out. (right now most companies are between 3-5 Mbps) This relies more on statistics, but when you have large numbers of customers it works out really well and gives a more useful ruler of where you need to increase your bandwidth. If you get bigger, between 2000-5000 customers you can start calculating your over subscription by average peak Mbps per user. (So for our imaginary AP I would start planning on adding another AP when I had subscribed about 1500 Mbps on it)

Normally, I will start looking to upgrade a sector when it gets above 3/4 full. You can do the math and it’s pretty easy to keep track of if you can “sell” more bandwidth or if you need to look at doing an upgrade. Which means you could have 20 customers at 100 Mbps or between 6-7 customers at 300 Mbps. With that much speed, if you follow a 4/1 ratio, you would have 2000 Mbps of bandwidth you could sell.
Personally I think anything over 8 is foolish and will make your customers really unhappy.Īn example of how this works out, let’s say I have an AP that will do 500 Mbps (and assume it’s the slowest point in my network, if you have anywhere else that is limiting your throughput then that is where you get your number). It’s pretty simple and works well for smaller systems, various companies I have interacted with will have a different level of over subscription, I have seen between 2-40. I follow a 4/1 over subscription rule, we will oversubscribe each Mbps at most 4 times. Depends on how much traffic you can push through the AP and what speed your clients are paying for.
