For new construction we are doing two, but not for existing drops. The more interesting question I think is what kind of cabling people are using for them. We are going to start using Cat6a with the assumption that the lifecycle replacement of our cabling is 15-20 years and within that time, the AP's will be 10 Gig, maybe even a lot sooner.

Currently we are just doing a one for one swap when replacing an older a/b/g AP's with 802.11ac phase 1 AP's When you have new construction, do you plan on running 2 drops so when phase 2 come into play you will be all set for it?
