Tom,
One detail that I forgot to mention.
It seems obvious but we got bitten by it many times!
Make sure to use Gigabit ports on switches that uplink the APs.
And if you use a midspan power-injector, also make sure that it supports
Gigabit Ethernet!

We are also a cisco shop and have both 1142 and 1252 AP's on capwap.
We've also recently evaluated Meru wireless gear and found it very
competitive.
You will definitely want to investigate user devices to ensure
throughput. For desktops we have older 2.4 only Belkin USB's (F5D8051)

We have a robotics research group that wants the highest-speed wireless

Tom,
We have had good success with Aruba AP-125, running in MIMO 3X3
and channel bonding enabled at 5 GHz (40 Mhz channels): about 175 Mbps
of net throughput
with the Atheros Chipset that could do MIMO 3X3 and could do Short
Guard Interval.
Caveat: The AP has to be great, but the station sho
