Another good option is Xirrus they have an AP that holds Quite a few
radios if it is in a compact enough area.

some QOS at the head end and
at the back end.

the area so overall usage is not as much as a concern as having enough

said AP devices on several buildings on the block with some form of
distribution BH system.� Of course, the APs will need to be fully
roaming friendly, etc.
