" Hi, I'm Tim Woods with the Internet Home Alliance. We're here in the basement of the Network Connection Center. This was the heart of the infrastructure for the home. Behind this panel, we have all of our cat-5 and RJ, which is being distributed to the different rooms of the home. Right here, we have our cable modem, which is interfacing with our Panasonic Broadband Gateway. That's providing our firewall security and routings through the different rooms in the home. This is our cable, which has been distributed to the barn, office, basement, kitchen, everywhere else, and this is our Ethernet, which is going out to the different phone lines of the home which is interfacing with the PBS system. You cannot have infrastructure in the home without having a box like this in the house for construction wiring and all of these are interfacing at a consumer level with our 2+2 in every room. So here's our 2+2 panel, it's basically our cat-5 and our RJ, which is basically Ethernet and cable. We have an infrastructure that runs through the whole house, which means that we can port Ethernet and cable wherever we want to in any room. As an example, here's our Panasonic LCD TV, I'm going to port that into our RJ, turn that on and we've got our security cam on the back port. So we can port this to the home security system, security cameras on the front and back port. We can also distribute cable throughout the house. When you create the infrastructure we have in this house, you need a control overlay system to provide you with the centralized control you'll need. This tablet does that. On the top, we have buttons for pre-program functions such as bedtime relief for the day. On the bedtime mode, basically you may be gaining up several functions such as security and lighting, so when you hit that one button, it actually does everything for you. The other thing is you can actually go into different functionality of the house like room audio and video. If we go in to that web page, you can actually see all of the vices that are connected to the network. When we go back, you can look at whole house audio and actually pick CD or turner and be able to control it from there. When you look at heating and cooling, not only do you get the temperature, but you can go into every single floor first floor, second floor, and third floor and be able to adjust the temperature as you wish. In addition, telephones can have a day mode or a night mode. Security can be engaged as armed and disarm; and lights can be controlled as well from the master bedroom and the master bath. Even gradating the type of light that you want, you can do 50%, 75%, or 100% on the lighting. If you want to do it the old fashion way, you can simply walk over to the wall the way we've always done and control the lights that way. The status will then be acknowledged from the central control unit."
