We have came along ways from the days of volume controls and large cabinets holding television’s and local equipment in each room. Now technology integrators hide equipment away using racks and integrate televisions into the decor of home. They are also tasked with providing the backbone for all communication between devices throughout the home and all communications to the outside world.
1. An EASY to use interface that runs all disciplines thought out your home, this includes audio-video distribution, heating and air conditioning, video surveillance, lighting control, shades, alarm system, door locks, garage doors, video door stations and pool controls.
2. Detailed documentation for your network which includes information on all devices that will be connecting to your networks along with heat maps or layouts for your wifi access points which take into consideration the construction of your home.
3. Full documentation which includes line diagrams, device locations plans and elevation views for your system. This will allow all trades to be on the same page throughout the building process.
4. Enterprise grade networks. The network is the biggest failure point in our industry. The demands of streaming video and music sources along with audio and video over IP systems cause such a strain on the network that the consumer grade products we have used in the past will not give you the desired experience.
5. 24/7 service and a multi year warranty which should include two site visits per year to recalibrate and update all systems.
