WIRELESS SITE SURVEYS

Reliable wireless connectivity is critical for barcode scanners, mobile computers, RFID systems, wearable devices, and other connected technologies. A wireless site survey helps identify coverage gaps, interference, and performance issues before they impact inventory management, production workflows, warehouse operations, or supply chain visibility.

What Is a Wireless Site Survey?

A wireless site survey is the process of evaluating wireless network coverage, signal strength, interference, access point placement, and connectivity requirements throughout a facility. Organizations use wireless site surveys to improve Wi-Fi performance, reduce network downtime, eliminate dead zones, and support mobile computers, barcode scanners, RFID systems, voice applications, and connected devices.

AbeTech performs wireless network assessments for manufacturing facilities, warehouses, distribution centers, healthcare environments, and transportation operations to help organizations build reliable wireless infrastructure that supports critical business processes.

 

An optimized wireless network is the key to getting the most out of your mobile computing and data collection investment.

Take the guesswork out of network downtime. Our expert diagnosis can identify the root causes of connectivity issues and get you back up and running quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need a wireless site survey?

Common signs include frequent dropped connections on scanners or mobile computers, dead zones in parts of your facility, or slower performance after adding new equipment or expanding your space. 

What happens during a wireless site survey?

 AbeTech's process includes an information-gathering conference call, an on-site visit, and analysis with feedback and recommendations for improving your network. 

How long does a wireless site survey take?

The time required depends on the size of the facility, network complexity, and operational requirements. Smaller facilities may require less time, while large warehouses, manufacturing facilities, or multi-building campuses may require a more comprehensive evaluation. AbeTech will help determine the appropriate scope based on your environment.

What information will I receive after a wireless site survey?

Following the survey, AbeTech provides recommendations based on the findings. These recommendations may include coverage improvement opportunities, interference identification, access point placement guidance, capacity considerations, and network optimization strategies designed to improve wireless performance and reliability.
.

How do I get started with a wireless site survey?

Schedule a consultation. The process typically begins with a discussion about your facility, current network challenges, connected devices, and business goals. AbeTech's team can then recommend the appropriate survey approach and help you develop a plan to improve wireless performance and support operational success.

How often should a wireless site survey be performed?

Organizations should consider a wireless site survey whenever significant facility, operational, or technology changes occur. Common triggers include facility expansions, new equipment installations, access point upgrades, the addition of mobile devices, persistent connectivity issues, or noticeable decreases in network performance. Many organizations also perform periodic reviews to ensure their wireless network continues to meet operational requirements.

Why is wireless network performance important for warehouse and manufacturing operations?

Warehouse and manufacturing workflows rely on wireless connectivity for barcode scanning, mobile computing, RFID, inventory management, production reporting, and real-time operational visibility. Poor network performance can lead to dropped connections, slower workflows, reduced productivity, and inaccurate data capture. A wireless site survey helps ensure the network can support these critical business processes reliably.

Can AbeTech implement the recommended changes?

Yes. In addition to performing wireless site surveys, AbeTech can help organizations implement recommended improvements, including wireless infrastructure upgrades, network optimization projects, access point deployment, device connectivity support, and ongoing network health evaluations.

How does a wireless site survey support RFID systems?

RFID systems often rely on wireless infrastructure to transmit data between readers, applications, and enterprise systems. A wireless site survey helps ensure that RFID hardware has the reliable network connectivity needed to support inventory visibility, asset tracking, workflow automation, and real-time decision making.

Can a wireless site survey identify dead zones?

Yes. Wireless site surveys are specifically designed to identify areas with weak signal strength, inconsistent coverage, or connectivity gaps. By mapping wireless coverage throughout a facility, AbeTech can identify dead zones and recommend improvements that help maintain reliable connectivity across operations.
