Home Network Cabling Considerations

Many users at home through the Self-built proxy server, hubs, switches, routers and other equipment network surfing. Most home computer networks require few terminals and network equipment, and the network structure is simple, may ignore the computer network wiring. For fans who use wireless networks, there is no need to consider the network wiring.

However, due to the economic, compatibility and transmission speed of various factors, the cable network is relatively flexible and safe. Below I talk about the experience of the room wiring.

The principle of wiring

1. Integrated wiring

In wiring design, the layout of telephone line, cable TV cable, power line and twisted pair should be considered synthetically. Telephone line and power line can not be too close to the twisted pair, in order to avoid the twisted pair, but also should not be too far away from the relative position to keep around 20cm.

2. Pay attention to Beauty

Home wiring more pay attention to aesthetics, therefore, wiring construction should be carried out at the same time as the decoration, as far as possible to bury the cable pipe groove under the floor or decorative plate, information outlets to choose the embedded type, the bottom box buried in the wall.

3. Simple design

Because the number of information points is small, management is very convenient, so home wiring no longer need to use wiring racks. The end of the twisted pair is connected to the information outlet and the other end can be connected directly to the hub device, thus saving expenses and reducing management difficulty. (Computer science)

4. Appropriate redundancy

The service life of the integrated wiring is 15, perhaps the household has fewer computers now, but no one can predict the extent of future household appliances, perhaps not a few years, all of the household appliances can be managed by the Internet. Therefore, proper redundancy is very necessary.

Problems to be considered when designing a home wiring scheme

Issues to consider when wiring

1. Number of information points

Usually, because the master bedroom usually has two owners, it is recommended to install two information points so that both sides can use the computer at the same time. Other bedrooms and living rooms need only install an information point for use when the child or temporarily changes the location of the computer. Especially when you have a laptop, you should consider installing an information point in each room and office. Restaurants usually do not need to install information points, because there are very few people there to use the computer. If the cell has an information interface, it should be equipped with a twisted pair from the interface to the set line equipment to realize the connection between the home network and the community broadband.

In addition, it is best to lay more 2~3 information points in the secluded locations of the home and back balconies for future installation of wireless network access point devices, wireless network connections for home computers, and portable laptops to work outdoors.

2. Information outlet position

In the choice of information outlets location, but also pay attention to, both easy to use, can not be blocked by furniture, and more subtle, not too conspicuous. In the bedroom, the information outlet can be located on both sides of the bedside, in the living room can be located in the sofa near the end of the window, in the study, it should be located near the desk, information outlets and the vertical distance of the ground should not be less than 20cm.

3. Location of hub equipment

Because the gathering line equipment is rarely contacted, so, under the premise that the ventilation is good, the gathering line equipment should be located in the most concealed position. It is important to note that the hub device requires power support, so it is necessary to provide a power outlet for the hub device when it is decorated. In addition, the assembly line equipment should avoid installation in damp, easy to wet and electromagnetic interference is very serious position.

4. Stay away from interference sources

Twisted-pair wires and computers should be kept away from washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners and electric fans to avoid interference with the transmission signals in twisted-pair wires.

5. Power separation

The power cords used by computers, printers and wire sets should be separated from the power cords used by fluorescent lamps, washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners and electric fans to achieve a separate power supply to ensure the safety and stability of the computer.

6. Route Selection

Twisted pair should avoid direct sun, not in damp place cloth. In addition, it should be kept away from the frequently used passages and heavy weights to avoid possible friction to ensure the electrical properties of twisted pair wires.
