Pre Wiring Your New House
Wiring for a smart home is simple and straightforward. Commonly available wiring is used. Eastern Shore Security's commitment to open design gives you many choices for equipment connection. All wires should be home run to a central location (such as a utility closet, entertainment center or similar location). Generally, telephone and TV wiring can be separated from the audio wiring but many homes choose one central location. Here are some simple suggestions:
-
Run CAT 5 or better wire for telephones and data lines. This will
provide for four lines to each location. -
Run RG-6 coax to all TV and touch panel locations. Dual runs of these wires make future expansion a possibility.
-
When running audio wires run four conductor (16/4 or better) through all keypad, volume control and touch-panel locations. This provides the best flexibility in the future. Then run 16/2 to each speaker location.
-
Run CAT 5 for control wires to each keypad, volume control and touch panel location. This will allow IR and network control of these devices.
-
Incoming service lead wires will need to be run for telephone, cable, satellite, door speakers and any cameras.
-
If a computer network such as a LAN is planned, run separate CAT 5 wire for this purpose.
-
If lighting control is a desired upgrade, most manufacturers have control wires that need to go to the control lo-cations of your choice.
-
Control wiring for security and HVAC systems, you should consider interface wiring for house wide control systems
