Wireless Networks


     Sometimes a fully wired network solution just isn't practical. Our engineers can carry out a wireless survey on your site to determine your particular requirements. Extra security measures are taken and all work is documented and produced for the customer on completion of the network installation. Where possible, the latest hardware is used to enable greater speeds and security


     Eclipse Data Solutions, Inc. can install your wireless network, test it and certify its operation. Upon completion, the wireless installation is documented for future reference.


     WiFi installation involves positioning access points and antennas in the facility. Mounting access points and antennas higher from the ground usually results in better WiFi signal propagation. Installation is the most physically demanding phase of a wireless project because ladders or lifts may be required to gain access to ceiling areas.


     Cabling and power runs should be completed and tested prior to the installation of the access points. After wireless network installation, testing for proper operation and coverage may indicate the need to move access points and possibly use different settings. Finally, documentation on all the system hardware and software will be provided to the IT staff as an aid to be used when supporting the operational system.




Some of the activities that will take place during wireless network installation include:

  • Mounting of access points

  • Installation of NEMA enclosures as required

  • Mounting of antennas

  • Connection of antennas to access points

  • Connection of Backbone LAN to access points

  • Connection of power to access points

  • Installation and connection of remote power system

  • Verification of WiFi coverage


Configuration of access points and hardware to include:

  • Proper firmware level

  • Radio information (system ID, channel, bit rate)

  • IP addresses (provided by customer)

  • Verification of backbone connectivity:

  • Ping access points

  • Ping Hosts


     Creating an efficient and cost effective computer and networking system is only obvious to trained and experienced professionals. Organizations frequently spend more time and money attempting to create a computer and network system than is required. Consulting services can save your organization time and money. Eclipse Data Solutions (EDS) can provide the information necessary to create a reliable and cost effective computer and network system for your organization. We have the experience and the skills to listen to you describe your needs, your way; and then to explain your options and cost based on decisions you make. We can explain how to balance your needs against your budget.
