In this video Matt walks through the items the Tym team recommends wiring standard, or at least considering, in every home.

Should you run Cat6, or Cat6a and what about Cat7 and Cat8. Matt explains the real benefit of different category cables is the distance the bandwidth can travel, and why they normally standardize on Cat6, and when they would use Cat6a.

He also looks at Fiber, and recommends the type of fiber to use in your home along with notes on Conduit.

Matt covers the home audio, surround sounds, ethernet, home network, Tvs, landscape speakers, conduit, touchscreens, and everything the Tym team looks at to adequately future proof a smart home.
