I’m a complete newbie and have come to home automation far too late. We are having a house renovated and extended and suddenly find ourselves meeting the electrician tomorrow to discuss requirements!! I have very little time for planning so need to make some decisions about wiring quickly. From browsing on the internet, including the wiring guide on this site it would seem to be a good bet to do the following:
Wired LAN for data, with two data points in all rooms. Should we be using Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat7?
Two TV Coax sockets in most / all rooms.
Phone sockets in rooms we decide they are needed in.
All cables home run to a node zero.
We’re going to have Sky digital TV in two rooms, and want to be able to pipe at least one of these to another room (from where we will be able to control the box). Do we need other wiring for this?
Thanks for any advice anyone is able to give.
