I’m getting ready to sit down with the guy who will be pulling the LV cabling for my new house. I have outlined which cables I need pulled to each location, but just wanted a double-check to see if I’m missing anything. All equipment will be located in downstairs utility room (where FiOS comes in as well), so that’s where everything comes to:
Lighting (RadioRa2) – Main Repeater in centrally located linen closet: Serial cable for integration w/security panel, Cat 5e cable for internet. (also told electrician to put an outlet in there)
Security (Omnipro II): 22/4 runs for all sensor locations and siren. Fire rated 22/4 for LV smoke detector (Electrician will be installing the 'real' smokes - this is just for monitoring)
22/4 and Cat 5e for keypad locations
Audio (Leviton HiFi 2): Cat 5e to each keypad location. Cat 5e for each Remote Input Module, 16/4 speaker for each speaker pair location
Cameras: Cat 6 to each location for PoE cameras
Wireless Access Point: Cat 6 for PoE WAP
Video/Phone: Cat 5e, Cat 6, RG6 to mapped out locations
RF repeater cables from TV mount area to equipment closet
Thermostats (Omnistat 2): 22/4 wire
One thing I’m unclear on is if I should place the HAI Zigbee receiver and Wireless receiver (for the few wireless sensors I have) in the same central location as the RR2 Main Repeater. I could pull some 22/4 cable out to there, but do you think I’d have problems from a radio interference perspective even though they all operate at different frequencies?
