Hi friend,
I want to know how many clients can be connected in Cisco AP 1140.
Best Regard,
Marco.

The best answer is 'It depends'.
You can have 25-30 if all they are doing is email and some web use. If you are doing voice drop that to 15, and if you are doing a lot of video streaming it can be lower than that.

Hi,
As Stephen mention the best answer is it depends.
What you need to keep in mind is that wireless is halfduplex and a shared medium and due to this the bandwith will go down per client.

A. The AP has the physical capacity to handle 2048 MAC addresses, but, because the AP is a shared medium and acts as a wireless hub, the performance of each user decreases as the number of users increases on an individual AP. Ideally, not more than 24 clients can associate with the AP because the throughput of the AP is reduced with each client that associates to the AP.
