Easily Control RF Interference

Spectrum Mug shot: RF interference as seen with Cisco Spectrum Expert

RF interference causes up to 50% of the problems for wireless networks. It can lead to slow performance or dropped service. The Cisco Unified Wireless Network offers a complete suite of Radio Resource Management tools to improve network visibility and automate control of the RF spectrum. You can use these tools to easily survey and operate a wireless network through:

Automatic channel assignment
Dynamic transmit power control
Coverage hole detection
Client load balancing

Start with a Site Survey

With these tools, you can perform an initial site survey to help ensure that your wireless network will deliver the required:

Coverage
Data rates
Network capacity
Roaming capability
Quality of service

Subsequent site surveys validate system performance and help you identify, work around, and remove sources of interference in the RF landscape.

Manage Your Wireless Network

The Cisco Unified Wireless Network and the Cisco Spectrum Expert offer a combined RF solution that you can use at every stage of a Wi-Fi deployment.

Planning: survey the RF landscape beforehand
Management: isolate RF issues
Troubleshooting: quickly detect root causes

The Cisco Spectrum Analysis tool monitors the airwaves in your wireless network and allows you to:

Quickly and accurately determine Wi-Fi spectrum health and sources of interference
Manage channel capacity and quality at the physical layer
Quickly eliminate interference sources
