Structured Wiring

It's Easy to be
Eco with Control4

Structured wiring is a general term that refers to various types of wiring installed in a home for the distribution of audio, video, telephone and data signals. Structured wires are usually bundled together and can include RG-6 or RG-59 video cable, Category-5, (CAT-5) or higher, network wiring, fiber optic,
 audio cables and other custom combinations.
This provides
the capacity and flexibility for the future needs of your home.
 Structured wiring is a method of providing the
communications infrastructure for your home in a well-
organized, easy to understand and thorough way. It provides
 a general solution to your present and future needs.

Some people run a coax here, and a CAT-5 there, trying to
 guess their future needs. Our structured approach is to run
a full bundle of wire to every significant room. The full
structured bundle consists of two 4-pair CAT-5 cables and
two coax cables (usually quad shield RG-6), and optionally,
 two multi-mode optical fibers. This is the configuration that
 has become the overwhelmingly preferred standard.

In a standard configuration, there are two coax cables which provide a downstream and upstream signal path. Cable channels, satellite signals, closed circuit channels all go downstream through a single coax cable. A separate upstream cable carries all closed circuit channels, surveillance cameras, DVD feeds, etc, --- to a video hub to feed any TV.
The two CAT-5 or higher, 4-pair telecommunication cables provide four phone lines and a separate full capability computer network backbone for your home. CAT-5 wire will support 100BaseT Ethernet networks, which are the standard for office and home multi-computer networks. It also provides the link for high speed ISDN, DSL, and cable modem connections to the Internet.

Structured cabling systems provide the extra capacity and flexibility for your home in the future. Panel organization and appearance make it easy for the homeowner to understand and maintain the system.
