Case Study: Future-Proof Business Wi-Fi with UniFi at Vision Composites

The Challenge

Vision Composites required a robust and reliable wireless network to support daily business operations across multiple areas of their premises.

Key challenges included:

• Inconsistent Wi-Fi coverage between rooms

• Physical installation constraints

• Seamless Roaming

• Wi-Fi segregation

• Increasing demand for high-speed, stable connectivity

  
  

The client needed a solution that would work within these constraints while providing long-term performance and scalability.

The Solution

We designed and deployed an enterprise-grade network using Ubiquiti UniFi, incorporating the latest Wi-Fi 7 technology for future-ready performance.

The solution included:

• Wi-Fi 7 access points for improved speed, lower latency, and better handling of multiple devices

• Strategic ceiling-mounted placement to maximise coverage despite cabling limitations

• A PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) switch, removing the need for separate power supplies and simplifying installation

• A dedicated UniFi controller for centralised management

• UniFi Site Manager for secure remote access, monitoring, and ongoing support

• Additional cooling for UniFi controller

  
  

The system was installed in phases, allowing real-world performance testing and optimisation without unnecessary cost.

Smart Monitoring & Support

A key part of the solution is proactive monitoring and remote support.

Using UniFi’s management platform, we can:

• Monitor device performance, signal strength, and connection quality

• Identify issues such as low-speed Ethernet links (e.g. 100 Mbps limitations)

• Troubleshoot client-specific issues without needing to attend site

• Optimise the network automatically (scheduled daily optimisation)

For example, when intermittent buffering was reported on a UHD TV service, remote diagnostics confirmed:

• Strong Wi-Fi signal and high connection speeds

• Minimal packet retries (indicating a healthy wireless connection)

This allowed the issue to be isolated to device or connection limitations rather than the network itself—saving time and unnecessary changes.

The Result

The upgraded network delivered:

• Consistent, high-speed Wi-Fi coverage across all areas

• Improved performance for high-bandwidth applications (including UHD streaming)

• Seamless roaming between access points

• Reduced cabling complexity through PoE deployment

• Ongoing visibility and control via remote monitoring

  
  

Future-Ready Infrastructure

The solution provides a scalable platform that can grow with the business, including:

• Additional access points if required

• Integration with CCTV and security systems

• Remote access and cloud-managed services

• Incremental upgrades without full system replacement

  
  

Why This Approach Worked

This project focused on delivering a practical, long-term solution rather than a quick fix:

• Designed around real-world building constraints

• Implemented using proven, business-grade technology

• Supported with ongoing monitoring and plain-English support

• Built to scale as the business grows
