Hello SNB members and thank you all for the active forum filled with knowledge!
I was asked to get quotes for our business to have secure, stable and "speedy" wifi access throughout our entire building. We are a Public Safety establishment and again need the added layer(s) of security. Our primary functions consist of Emergency Responsiveness focusing on both Law Enforcement, Medical and Homeland Security.
Anyways, here is a little info pertaining to our building and department. The square-footage of the desired wifi access is approximately 40,000 SqFt; of which about 25,000 SqFt. is an office setting and the remaining 15,000 SqFt is a garage. Our current employee count, that will actively utilize throughput at any given time (BTW we are a 24 Hour operation) is roughly 60 employees; at which I would say that more then have of this throughput will be users on tablets/laptops/phones basically either browsing the web/app usage, e-mails, and/or file transferring to networked servers we currently have up and running. Our current network, both clients and servers, consist of mostly HP hardware. Is their anything I am missing here???
I am assuming I will need to purchase a standalone network router and several wireless access points. Am I correct? Currently, our budget is open (within a reasonable amount) as I am now only looking for quotes. We currently do not own any AC enabled devices but may in the near future. Any suggestions on equipment?
**** Myself and our company greatly appreciates any and all feedback. ****
