shown in Figure 42: Two RAPs per Cell on Different Channels, on page 96. The addition of RAPs into an
area adds capacity and resilience to that area.

Multiple RAPs
If multiple RAPs are to be deployed, the purpose for deploying these RAPs needs to be considered. If the
RAPs are being deployed to provide hardware diversity, the additional RAP(s) should be deployed on the
same channel as the primary RAP to minimize the convergence time in a scenario where the mesh transfers
from one RAP to another. When you plan RAP hardware diversity, consider the 32 MAPs per RAP limitation.
