Do the homework
Technology planning checklist
- 1Plan the network first: a wired backbone and properly placed access points support everything else.
- 2Choose rack or equipment locations with ventilation and service access.
- 3Pre-wire during construction or renovation, while walls and ceilings are open.
- 4Decide which rooms need audio, video, shading or lighting control, and which do not.
- 5Keep interfaces simple: agree on how everyday functions work for every person in the house.
- 6Ask about power protection, remote monitoring and the support plan after installation.
- 7Request documentation: device lists, network map, passwords handed to you.
- 8Confirm permits where low-voltage or electrical work requires them.
