Hi All,



We are just starting to price an Automation System for a new 5 bed house. I
have currently included 24 CAT5 outlets (2 per bed, 2 Living, 2 Kitchen, 4
TV/Study, 4 Study, 2 Dining). We will be installing 48 way switch to leave
room for IP cameras etc. Are there any other ports that I should consider?
More in the kitchen (System X)? Also, is a managed switch overkill for a
home?



On the Automation front it looks like we will be using Cbus, Crestron or
Control4. Does anyone have any suggestions on which is best? My main query
with Cbus is how does it interface with other systems?
(Security/AV/HVAC/etc)



Audio: Sonos or Cbus?



Any tips will be gratefully received



Regards



James
