1.2 System Layout
The diagram below shows an example network layout in a mine incorporating WAPs. A mine will typically
deploy Wireless Network Switches (WNS, NS50 etc.) to form the main network infrastructure. WAPs
then connected and powered from the network switch using Power over Ethernet (PoE) to extend the
wireless network. They are positioned as network branches to improve coverage in conned areas such
as in refuge bays.
