60 Site planning and hardware deployment
Assess floor layout
The deployment procedure changes according to the similarities and
differences of the floors.
•
All floors have the same layout.
To begin a multi-floor deployment if all floors have the same layout,
deploy one floor and enter the data on the floor plan. Use the data
from the deployed floor for other identical floors.
For example, if the second floor of an office tower is laid out with
cubicle style offices with a perimeter of enclosed offices, and the third
floor is laid out in the same manner, both floors can have the same
installation profile for basestations.
•
All floors do not have the same layout.
If the floor plan varies from floor to floor, use the critical point method
to deploy each distinct floor. For more information, see
tool for deployment" (page
Do not underestimate the importance of changes in floor layout. Simple
changes in a room from a meeting room to a storage room can have
significant impact on the coverage from a basestation.
Multi floor coverage situations
The following situations require multi-floor coverage.

Atriums Cells in an atrium, as shown in

the information in this section as a guide help you to plan an atrium. No
precise steps to follow when you deploy an atrium, but you must consider
several points. For more information, see
