Wi-Fi For Multi-Dwelling Units (MDU)

Enhancing Resident Connectivity

In MDUs, residents expect seamless internet access—whether streaming 4K/8K, working from home, gaming, managing smart-home IoT devices, or participating in virtual fitness classes. With high user density and varied device profiles, standard consumer Wi-Fi often fails. We design solutions that ensure:

Full building coverage, including balconies, common areas and basements
Sufficient capacity for hundreds of simultaneous devices
Seamless roaming between APs for mobile residents
Support for both resident and guest segments with secure segmentation

Optimising for High Density & Shared Infrastructure

Unlike single-family homes, MDUs present unique challenges: overlapping channels, shared vertical stacks, interference from adjacent units, and varying construction materials. Our approach:

RF-profiling and channel‐assignment tailored to MDU geometry
Interference mitigation from neighbour units, IoT devices, and building systems
Capacity-based design, not just coverage: we plan for hundreds of devices per floor
Use of Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 technology to maximise throughput, minimise latency and support IoT ecosystem

Smart Building & IoT Integration

Modern MDU networks aren’t just “internet for residents” — they are platforms for smart-building innovation. We enable:

Staff safety and asset tracking in high-end residential or mixed-use complexes
Smart sensors (environmental, occupancy, energy) connected via the Wi-Fi backbone
IoT lifecycle management and health checks to ensure durability and security
Building owner dashboards that monitor network health, tenant satisfaction and operational efficiency

Security & Segmentation for Multi-Tenant Environments

In shared residential infrastructures, security and segmentation are critical:

Vendor-neutral architecture supporting WPA3-Enterprise, 802.1X, identity-based access
Tenant isolation while enabling guest Wi-Fi and property manager access without risk
Zero-Trust NAC for IoT devices in communal areas (e.g., smart locks, cameras, sensors)
Continuous monitoring and root-cause analysis — no more guessing why “Wi-Fi is slow
