1. Bandwidth For All Devices

Most family members will have a phone, maybe a laptop or tablet, plus all your TVs, gaming consoles, and smart technology. All of these devices require internet connectivity and will eat away at your internet’s bandwidth, potentially overpowering a weak network. You might think getting a router from an internet provider and plugging it in is enough, but you'll need something more in a home with so many devices.

Let Launch Systems Take the Guesswork Out of the Perfect Home Network

Modems, routers, wireless access point setups, network switches...the list goes on! Connecting devices to the internet in your Laguna Beach, CA home may seem complicated these days, but it doesn’t need to be. While many components are necessary for wired and wireless networks to work correctly, all you truly need is a well-designed and executed network to stay connected when and where it matters most.

Whether you only have a few smart devices or entrust your entire home automation system to a network connection, you need to know that all of your devices are secure, fast, and stay connected.

Interference

Homes are comprised of many different materials, including glass, wood, metal, and concrete. Many of these cause obstructions of the wireless signal, so intelligent placement of wireless access points is crucial. Drywall, plywood and glass are more easily penetrable by wireless signals, whereas metal is not. Metal pipes, sculptures, and even electronics could negatively affect your signal. Besides building materials, other signal interferences include video games, microwaves, security cameras, and Bluetooth devices. A property-wide site survey is necessary to determine what could potentially interfere with your new or upgraded home network.

Whether a New Installation or an Upgrade, Launch Systems Can Set Your Network Up for Success

A strong network helps you stay connected to work, entertainment, friends, and family. It’s the backbone of any modern California home and supports all of your high-tech gadgets and innovative smart technologies. The network wiring process looks a bit different between building a brand-new home and upgrading an existing home. New buildings’ networks can be designed from the ground up before the drywall is installed. Existing homes’ networks need a bit more finesse, working with existing walls and fixtures. Luckily, professional network wiring services are one of the many solutions Launch Systems provides for Irvine-area residents — we can do both! Read on to learn why network wiring services are such an integral piece of supporting your modern home.

Connectivity Where You Need It

Ensuring proper wired connections and adding wireless access points in critical locations of your property is imperative. A home’s construction materials or interior furnishings can significantly influence the efficacy of a network. Too much metal, such as around stairwells or utility boxes, hinder signal while wood, plaster, and glass materials interfere less. The most important steps in any network wiring service are pre- and post-installation site surveys and consultations. A site survey allows the technician to not only evaluate a homeowner’s network needs but will enable them to walk your property and determine potential interference spots as well as locations to house wiring, modems, and routers. Beyond the site survey, technicians will select the products best suited for your network to provide the utmost efficiency and reliability. There are no one-size-fits-all solutions; each service is custom-created for you.  

Works Behind the Scenes

A proper network setup will work in the background of your Irvine-area home without you realizing it’s there — it will simply work as you need it to! Wiring can be hidden away with enclosure cables and cable troughs to rack accessories and cabling cabinets that protect your components from dust and dirt. The best network and cabling services leave your home running smoothly, so all of your devices can connect without a hitch.

Reliability

You’re downstairs in the home office on a conference call while the kids are upstairs playing their favorite online learning games. Your spouse is streaming a movie in the media room while they work. The demand on your network is intense, and if you have a subpar home network, then at any moment, your network could crash. Not only is your family actively using the network, but there’s likely an array of smart devices connected as well — tablets, phones, smart thermostats—even bathroom scales can connect to Wi-Fi these days. A well-designed home network is reliable because it can support all of your home’s devices, with the ability to grow as your device count grows. Wireless and wired networks work in tandem with one another. The wired network serves as the backbone to your entire network, offering top speeds, while your wireless network gives your family the flexibility it desires. The combination of modems, routers, wireless controllers, network switches, and wireless access points offer your Newport-area home the fastest, most reliable solution for increased network demands.  

Security

You may initially think you don’t need security features on your home network, but that’s a dangerous idea. Cybercriminals can hack Wi-Fi networks if you aren’t taking measures to protect yourself. WPA2 password protection is the primary method of securing your network from those that have no business being there and prevents neighbors from hopping on your network and stealing your bandwidth. Additional security measures you can take to protect your network include network firewalls that protect your network from incoming malicious traffic and guest networks. Setting up a guest network is relatively simple and prevents your main network’s security from being compromised. Launch Systems can help you design a secure network that best suits your needs.   If you’re ready to advance the power of your home network, Launch Systems can help you stay connected with professional installation services in your California home.
