Next step in this phase is the installation of all the network equipment, including APs, switches, cables, and various other pieces of network hardware. All of the hardware is installed using the design plans from the site survey to provide the best WiFi coverage throughout an area.

​

• Run Cables, Conduit, and Power

• Install Access Points, Telecom Closets, and Necessary Ports outlets

• Provide proper labeling, documenting, and placement of equipment for easier changes / upgrades in the future

The cut-over process is specific to a project with an upgrade. It is the last step in the install phase as it is the transition from the existing network to the newly redesigned network. During the cut-over, there will be brief interruptions in connectivity due to the disconnection of the previous network.

​

• Keep network interruptions as brief as possible

• Make configuration changes when necessary

• Verify WiFi Design with Post-Site Surveys
