Cyberhomes Limited

• An advanced wireless network
• Multi-room music system
• Wireless Multi Room music system
• An upgrade to the existing home cinema room
• In particular, it was essential that it could all be controlled
  in a convenient way

The controls should be comprehensive enough to provide ‘blanket’ coverage of all systems,
yet intuitive enough to allow use by all in the house - even the less technically minded!

The advantage with it being a wireless system meant that the client could literally plug ‘n’ play their components to any area in the property even in cupboard spaces out of sight. The Hand controllers could also be left on mobile docking stations or put in draws if they did not want them to be seen.

The Broadband enabled telephone line was in an outbuilding and the client
wanted to be able to have internet access in all area of the home. As wireless
range is an issue a ‘bridge’ system was installed.

Four Desktop P.C’s were located in various rooms of the house and the communication was bridged using Buffalo access points. The idea being that
the main P.C’s were hard wired to the access points and then they created a
wireless mesh back to the main router. A Hewlett Packard Printer, scanner and
fax machine was also accessed by all P.C’s in the property.

It was also possible to freely roam the property with a wireless enabled laptop.

A Wireless Sonos multi-room audio system was provided and distributed
throughout to the Study, Gym, Kitchen, Swimming Pool, Lounge and Sitting
Room. Three Sonos hand controllers were provided for control which was
capable of streaming internet radio as well as all of the clients CD collection
which was stored on the main PC’s hard disk.

It was possible to play individual music tracks independently in all areas as
well as linking zones for the ‘party event’ situation.

The main lounge was installed with a 50inch Pioneer True High Definition Plasma
TV recessed into a bespoke fitted mantel piece. The surround sound system was powered by a Denon Processor and complimented with a Bowers and Wilkins MT
30 Surround Sound System and a Denon DVD player. All control was undertaken using an RTI T3 wireless remote control which also controlled the music system.

The client wanted to be able to view Sky+, DVD and control the music system
within the lounge and also be able to view a standard Sky box and Sky+ box in
all secondary area including the Kitchen and Master bedroom over the existing
RF infrastructure.
