Wi-Fi & RF Site Design

Reliable Wi-Fi starts with strategic, environment-specific design. Our Wi-Fi & RF Site Design service uses RF modeling, infrastructure analysis, and on-site data to build wireless networks that are secure, scalable, and optimized for real-world conditions.

Important: This is not just an installation recommendation. Our service delivers pre-deployment modeling, spectrum planning, and design documents to support both Wi-Fi 6/6E and next-generation Wi-Fi 7 infrastructure.


What’s Included

Wi-Fi 7-Ready Network Design

  • Channel planning for 320 MHz channels in the 6 GHz band
  • Optimized design for Multi-Link Operation (MLO) and Multi-RU scheduling
  • Dense AP placement modeling to support high-throughput, low-latency devices
  • Backward compatibility planning for mixed Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 environments

Designs are adaptable to residential, enterprise, industrial, or outdoor deployments based on current hardware availability and roadmap alignment.

3D Heatmaps & RF Signal Modeling

  • Wall composition, obstructions, and signal attenuation
  • Multi-floor signal interactions
  • Material effects such as racking, metal enclosures, and glass
  • Signal overlap, dead zones, and interference zones

This modeling helps visualize coverage before deployment and ensures a more accurate implementation.

AP Placement & Spectrum Efficiency

  • Maximize coverage with optimal AP placement
  • Reduce co-channel interference with proper channel spacing
  • Prepare for OFDMA and MU-MIMO usage in dense environments
  • Support roaming, voice, and high-bandwidth applications without performance loss

Where applicable, we model for both indoor and outdoor dual-band or tri-band APs.

Outdoor & Campus Coverage

  • Campus environments and multi-building layouts
  • Pole and building-mounted APs with clear line-of-sight
  • Outdoor mesh or point-to-point bridging
  • Industrial yards, logistics zones, or hospitality properties

Coverage is designed to be continuous, secure, and easily segmented by use case.

Zoning and Network Segmentation

  • Separate SSIDs and VLANs for staff, guest, IoT, and BYOD devices
  • Policy-based access control planning using RADIUS, 802.1X, or PSK
  • Guest throttling and DNS filtering options
  • Support for roaming handoff optimizations in segmented environments

Deliverables

  • A complete RF design package with annotated building layouts
  • 3D heatmaps illustrating expected signal strength and coverage
  • Access point placement maps with cabling and mounting guidance
  • A spectrum plan with recommended channel assignments
  • Documented design assumptions and configuration notes

All deliverables follow industry standards and include clear instructions to support installation and deployment.


Add-On Services

Add-On Service Description
On-Site RF Survey Validate RF environment before design in high-complexity spaces
Post-Install Signal Validation Confirm signal coverage and performance against design targets
Controller Setup & Integration Assist with cloud or on-prem controller setup and device onboarding
Roaming and Handoff Optimization Tune AP thresholds, band steering, and load balancing for mobility users

These services can be included in the initial scope or quoted separately depending on need.


Need to Know

  • Accurate floor plans or building dimensions are required for predictive designs
  • If no plans are available, NetFire can perform on-site 3D scanning to generate an approximate layout suitable for design
  • Wi-Fi 7 support depends on the client device ecosystem and infrastructure readiness
  • Designs can be revised post-deployment if validation is performed
  • Mesh, wall-plate APs, and sensor integrations can be included on request
  • Typical delivery timeline is 5 to 10 business days depending on complexity

Get Started

To begin your wireless design process:

  • Email your floor plan and requirements to sales@netfire.com
