Outdoor Automation Simplifies the Technology in Your Backyard

Outdoor Networking

If you’ve been following our blog, you know about outdoor speakers and displays. But there’s another aspect of outdoor entertainment that you may not have considered: your home network. As the backbone of both your entertainment and automation systems, your network facilitates connections so you can do everything from streaming a movie to turning off your lights.

When it comes to outdoor entertainment, strong network connections can mean the difference between stunning 4K resolution on your display and subpar performance. For your automation system, weak networking could mean slower response times.

Southern Cinema Design can install structured cabling beneath your lawn to connect each device in your yard. Hardwired connections ensure fast, reliable service in each corner of your home. If wiring is not possible, we can upgrade your wireless network to ensure your outdoor wireless performance is as good as it is inside. With the right networking upgrades, you can get the most out of your outdoor entertainment and automation.

Automation Control

An outdoor entertainment system is all about fun in the sun (and under the stars.) That means you don’t want to deal with complicated controls and multiple user interfaces to stream the content you love.

An automation system can help simplify the technology in your backyard. And it’s not just the AV; you can control your lights, security features, and even your irrigation system with a single system. Combine multiple commands under a single button and enjoy your technology with ease.

The great thing about an outdoor automation system is that it’s the same as your indoor system. You can control everything with your smartphone or tablet and a Control4 smart home automation system. Dim the lights in your bedroom and stream a movie to the deck with the same interface. With integrated automation, your technology has never been simpler.
