Smart home, or smart House, is commonly used in English. Intelligent Home is a residential platform, with architecture, network communications, information appliances, equipment automation, set system, structure, service, management as one of the efficient, comfortable, safe, convenient, environmentally friendly living environment. With the development of social economy, people today feel that smart home will greatly change the way people live and work, which also led to the development of intelligent home housing.
A smart home can be defined as a process or a system. The use of advanced computer technology, network communication technology, integrated wiring technology, and home life related to various subsystems, organically combined, through the overall management, so that home life more comfortable, safe and effective. Compared with ordinary home, the intelligent home not only has the traditional living function, provides the comfortable safe, the high grade and the pleasant family life space, but also from the original passive static structure transforms to has the active wisdom the tool, provides the omni-directional information exchange function, helps the family and the outside to keep the information exchange unimpeded, optimizes people's life Help people to effectively arrange time, enhance the safety of home life, and even save money for various energy costs.
Modern society's home life, not only to be convenient and comfortable, but also intelligent, entertainment, security, which requires a good home wiring system. Home wiring is the home room of the "meridian", it supports the modern home in a variety of equipment, they pass a variety of circuit signals to a variety of equipment. Modern home wiring system mainly has the following subsystems: LAN system, CATV system, telephone system, home theater system, AV system, home background music system, infrared forwarding system, monitoring and alarming system.
The modern wiring idea basically praises "the star topology" The structure, this is to the past "The bus topology Structure" replaces. The star topology emphasizes that each line is independent, avoiding a single point of failure that causes the entire system to be paralyzed. Home wiring is the vast majority of the use of Advanced star topology wiring, concentrated in the information access box to implement centralized management, easy jumper, easy to expand, this is the main content of home wiring. However, we can not generalize, believe that any wiring through the Information Access box summary management, which also has several systems are independent wiring, such as the above mentioned infrared forwarding system, home theater system, family background music system does not need to converge to the information access box, they have their own unique characteristics and need to use independent wiring mode. The following is mainly to introduce the characteristics of each subsystem of home wiring.
LAN system
The network Information Age has had the important influence to the home life, we should keep abreast with the time the footsteps to set up the small local area network for the new house, should answer the family net, the information home Appliances access network, the long-distance network monitoring and so on needs. Build a small local area network at home, just apply for a broadband Internet connection, so that each room can use the computer at the same time Internet. In addition, with the trend of Home appliance network, Network Audio-visual center, network refrigerator, network microwave, network video monitoring will appear, these devices can find the nearest network interface access network.
Wiring characteristics: The general LAN is a star topology structure, any node or connection cable failure, will only affect a node, through the operator provides an outside access information access box, it can be installed in the modem, switches, routers and other active equipment, in the Information Access box 8-port modular wiring bracket, All the wiring of the socket panel is RJ45 module, then installed on the modular wiring bracket, and finally through the RJ45 jumper connected to the switch or router, so that all the application equipment can be online at the same time.
For now on the internet and a large number of network information available to reserve the network information interface, we need each room has at least two network interface: one can be used as a network, one can be used as a telephone, which is based on network and telephone multiplexing and mutual line backup requirements. In the living room of the TV wall recommended to set aside at least 2 data interface, mainly for future IPTV and network TV applications.
