SAPIUM partners with LEVITON to install integrated home networks

San Gabriel, CA - New technology is impacting the way we live and state-of-the-art information and communication systems today have a place in the average American home. This has created the need to upgrade the residential wiring system so that consumers can enjoy today’s latest technologies in their homes.  A SAPIUM installed Leviton Integrated Network offers an optimal solution for meeting the needs of today’s “wired home”, offering four application modules that support Internet and computer networking applications, whole-house video and audio, and family and home monitoring.

“In 1998, 30,000 new homes had some type of structured wiring. In 1999, that number more than doubled to 90,000 new homes outfitted with structured wiring with an expected climb this year to 200,000 new homes. The need to ‘future proof’ a home is becoming more and more necessary as increasing numbers of consumers choose to bring technologies once reserved for the workplace into their homes,” said Bill Marshall, Leviton’s Vice President of Marketing and Product Management.

At the heart of Leviton’s Integrated Networks is the company’s Structured Media Center. The Structured Media Center serves as the central hub from which low-voltage wiring such as Category 5 and coaxial cable are run to termination points wherever they’re needed. Easy-to-install snap-in modules distribute voice, data, audio and video signals throughout the home. The design of the Structured Media Center easily enables the addition of new components as the connectivity requirements of the home grows.

According to Annemarie Grady, Leviton’s Builder Marketing Manager  “Leviton Integrated Networks affords a modular design that homeowners can expand at any time, subject to their needs and budget.  Builders benefit by being able to transform their new homes into high tech environments that are future proofed against the risk of obsolescence. All parties benefit from a system backed by a company that has stood at the forefront of the electrical industry for nearly a century.”
