Assumptions For The Ap1522 Range Calculator - Cisco Mesh Access Points Deployment Manual

Site Preparation and Planning
Because most of the clients available are 2.4-GHz clients, we recommend the cell size taking 2.4 GHz values
into consideration (see
83).

AP Type (-E Domain)
1552 C/I
1552 E/H
For AP to AP distance we can take double the AP to Client distance (see
Cell Radius, on page

To estimate the range and the AP density, you can use range calculators that are available at

Assumptions for the AP1522 Range Calculator

• The AP1522 Range Calculator has been edited to stay within limitations for Tx power and EIRP under
the listed regulatory domains. There may be cases where it exceeds the limitations. You must verify that
the installation is within the laws of the location in which it is being installed.
• When you use the AP1522 Range Calculator, available power levels change based upon the regulatory
domain, the antenna (or antenna gain) selected, the modulation mode, which is based on the data rate
selected (OFDM requires a lower power level in some domains). You must verify all parameters after
making any parameter changes.
