Enterprise and Campus Wi-Fi

Full signal on every device is not the same as a room that works.

A lecture hall can show four bars on every phone and still fail. Coverage and capacity are different problems, and only coverage shows up on a heat map. When the room fills, everyone in it is sharing one radio.

Indian buildings make it harder again. RCC slabs and brick partitions absorb far more signal than drywall does. Global seat standards are written for drywall, so the access point count that worked at the parent office is the wrong count here.

The answer is usually placement, which is why the SECCOM number sometimes comes back below the one you were expecting.

SECCOM builds campus wireless on Ruckus, Aruba, Juniper Mist and Extreme, and specifies the one the building argues for: Ruckus where density and interference are the fight, Aruba and Juniper Mist where you want one policy fabric and AI-assisted assurance, Extreme where the campus is already standardised on it. The survey decides. Where a campus is already standardised on one of their fabrics, SECCOM stays inside it, so the wireless, the switching and the access policy behave as one system. Where the harder problem is density, roaming or outdoor coverage, a different platform often suits the building better. SECCOM will tell you which one, before you buy it.
