Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] How many drops 802.11ac phase 2

Every CURRENT (Wave 1) 802.11ac AP with the exception of Cisco has TWO Gig NICs.
Cisco will add the second NIC with Wave2

Unless you plan to remain a Cisco Wave1 user forever.....  the answer is two.

I may be crazy but what if the 2nd cable isn't only about adding another gig of 
bandwidth, but also that it provides a second source of power.  Right now 
802.3at is good for wave 1, at least with Cisco, but do we know what the power 
budget for wave 2 is?

Not having to forklift 802.3at switching/mid-spans is a big deal, I think.

We have also always run 2 for AP’s and everything else, it’s always a pair(or 
4, 6, 8etc) whether for phone, computer, projects, ip camera, bms ,wireless 
etc. We’ve investigated singles a few time, but barely  a 20% drop in price so 
we have continued with 2. Each building has  a standard, so we remain with 
that, if the building is Cat 6, then the new duals are 6 if it’s 6a then we run 
that. New buildings/reno’s are all 6a. Often enough we have found the extra 
port gets used, particularly for lower ports, but even in roof space for ip 
camera’s and projects for example and vice versa.

I generally agree at the moment though that it’s unlikely we’ll see any major 
requirement for more than 1Gbps in the near future…. Can we actually run 160 
channel width in high density? 802.11ad might be a different story, but that’s 
a while away and would require re-design and new cabling anyway.

We always run 2 cables per drop location (wireless or otherwise).
Bulk of the cost is labor, so makes sense to do so.

All,
I wanted to see how many people were planning on running 2 drops to 802.11ac 
phase 2 access points?
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?
