Cisco 1570 AP coverage

[zarni tun]

Hi Cisco Wireless guru,

Kindly refer to the doucment >> https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/aironet-1570-series/white-paper-c11-733640.pdf

There, Apple iphone 1000 feet away from roof-top 1570AP is still getting reasonable throughput and signal under LOS and clean weather. But miercom did not mention antenna is omani or directional. Actually client to AP (uplink throughput) can not happen over such a long distance before, but as per document it happens because of client link and beamforming features.

Ok. My question is "Is it omani or directional antenna when miercom tested this scenerio?" and "I am really eager to know its 2.4 coverage and throughput when 1570 is AIR-ANT2568VG-N under LOS and clean weather"

Regards,

The recommended tool for estimating distance and coverage for the AP1570, is the Coverage and Capacity Calculator.
