The number of SkyBox RPUs that you need to deploy is largely dependent on the amount of square feet that need to be monitored. Each RPU has a range greater than that of your access point (AP), so the SkyBox RPU can monitor more than one node-group at a time. Generally, Elixar sees a 1:3 ratio as acceptable for a contiguous site. Satellite offices would need to have at least one SkyBox RPU. For more information, please contact Elixar and we would be happy to guide you to the optimized solution.
