What is Structured Wiring?
Due to the growing popularity of home computing and the Internet, the increase in home offices, and the era of digital entertainment, standard home wiring is not sufficient to meet the electronic needs of most families. Structured Wiring allows the integration of voice, data, audio, and video services into a central, manageable and upgradeable distribution system within the home.
How does it work?
All external communication lines (i.e. television, cable, internet, telephone, etc.) coming into the house are connected to a central distribution panel which is typically installed in the basement or utility closet. This enclosure essentially becomes the "command center" for the entire home’s voice, video, data and audio distribution. Within the enclosure, each incoming signal is connected to wires that run through the walls of the house to different rooms, allowing you to change, update and control all digital services from a single source.
Why do I need it?
Enjoy the latest innovations in home entertainment and whole-house music distribution without additional wiring. Communicate better within your home and to the outside world. Add greater security to your home and for your family. Create a state-of-the-art home office without unsightly tangles of cords and wires. Add convenience, comfort and entertainment to your home, while at the same time futureproofing your home for tomorrow’s technologies. Most importantly, maximize the value of your greatest investment by increasing your home’s resale value for today as well as the future.
What does a basic Structured Wiring home system include?
Most systems start with a quality enclosure that can accommodate a variety of plug-and-play modules for telephone, computer, music/audio, and video distribution. A basic structured wiring system should include connectivity for Category 5e telephone; RG6 coaxial cables for video entertainment and monitoring; 12 to 16 gauge high-quality audio cable for whole house audio distribution; and cable or DSL modem inputs with output to Category 5e cables for computer networking and hi-speed Internet access.
