The Solution
In total, we installed 66 data points/cables and 12 aerial coax points around the house. In large part due to laying the infrastructure cabling beneath floorboards, loft spaces and joists, we could create a smart home system rich in functionality while still seamless to use.
As we integrated the security cameras, intercom system and AV system into one main URC server sited in a rack-based data cabinet with other media sources, the eight main rooms were each left with a TV, 2-4 speakers, lights and a URC control device as the only visible smart home elements.
However, in each room, the user could open and close gates, view CCTV, turn lights on and off, change mood lighting and control room temperature – all from the same URC tablet or smart device. This device could also conveniently show visitors who had pressed the intercom bell.
