<div>Hey Qui,</div><div><br></div>While I can't offer advice on the Cisco AP's; we've got temporary and permanent solutions in place using Ruckus wireless gear for up to 1,500 user sites with both heavy wireless users (student accommodation) and temporary mobile clients (arts/music/film festivals ... like the one on Cockatoo Island we're doing right now :-D ).<div>
<br></div><div>When determining bandwidth requirement; this depends on the type of clients as in the 2 examples and what traffic you plan to allow/provide and what you want to block.<br><br></div><div>If you're just expecting 90% of the people will be using Facebook and Twitter then a 50Mbps service would (IMO) be fine provided you looked at blocking junk traffic (bittorrent etc) and performed basic QoS.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you're looking to provide streaming media over the wireless (lets say someone created a fancy audio tour webpage to stream to smart phones or tablets) then you'd likely need more and some decent QoS to ensure that non-critical traffic types wouldn't affect the former.</div>
<div><div><br></div><div>I'm happy to discuss further on or off-list if you have any questions.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Andrew Cox</div><div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 26 October 2012 13:10, Qui Le <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:QLe@sydneyoperahouse.com" target="_blank">QLe@sydneyoperahouse.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
