and design before installation.
The following factors affect the configuration of the network required:
• Wireless coverage requirements of the mine
• Quantity and type of wireless client devices connected to the network
• Wired client devices connected to the network and their location
• Interconnection to the mines existing corporate network
• Policies for network protocols between networks
• Cabling requirements
