Large public venue

Information and guidance for wireless architects wanting to deploy high-density Wi-Fi in Large Public Venues.

Drawing from over 15 years of Wi-Fi industry experience, leadership, and real-world deployment, the Wi-Fi design guide for large public venues provides data-driven guidance for those looking to deploy Wi-Fi in a large public venue (LPV). These design insights come from deployments across universities, stadiums, arenas, and experiences running conferences such as HPE Discover, Atmosphere, and more.

The purpose of this guide is to assist those interested in LPV with the process of understanding the scope and magnitude of planning which goes into LPV design. This guidance, paired with the online LPV rough order of magnitude (ROM) calculator, provides an initial assessment of the hardware and software required for an LPV project. The guidance provided herein should serve as a starting point, allowing for the establishment of baseline requirement gathering and guiding the reader on how to have meaningful discussions about the specific deployment needs for an LPV installation.

For complex scenarios or corner cases that fall outside these baseline guidelines or are not covered in this guide, please contact your account team for customized recommendations.
