We at OmniTel’s Technology Central, make your life more efficient, secure, and a heck of a lot more fun!
Smart Home (back to top)
Imagine elegance, simplicity and convenience in your home with touchscreens and keypads to manage music, multimedia, lighting control, temperature controls (HVAC) and security systems – all with the slightest touch, from within the home or the entire world via the Internet.
Simplicity
Our home integration systems use a revolutionary concept – modes -- to tell your integrated system what to do. It’s a new way to provide gracious living with ease and simplicity. Your unique modes can be as limitless as your imagination.
Common Modes
Common modes -- Home, Night, Away, Vacation and Entertainment -- use touchscreens to take care of numerous electronic functions throughout your entire home. Keypads provide system access from secondary locations.
Lighting
Integrating your lighting scheme is essential in today’s homes. Our integrated lighting control systems provide the ultimate in convenience, security, safety and ambiance.
Temperature Controls (HVAC)
Integrating your HVAC system provides an easy way to keep your home at a comfortable temperature when you’re at home and save you money when you’re away. Special thermostats provide options round the clock.
Security
We integrate your digitally controlled security systems to provide a seamless fit with your overall integrated system. And we can connect your security cameras so you can view them on special channels on all TVs in your home, and from anywhere in the world via the Internet.
Audio (back to top)
Our integrated music systems deliver robust, digital sound to each room, each floor, and each area of your home and they’re fully compatible with your integrated system.
Your Choice
Our music systems allow you to choose from all your audio and video options – DVD, satellite, cable, CDs, AM/ FM/XM radio, iPod, and others – from any touchscreen in your home.
A Digital World
Content is 100% digital. Networked audio/video products can now coexist with other networked products such as PCs, PDAs, web tablets, and IP-based cameras, security and control systems, lighting, and home automation systems.
Speakers
Architectural speakers -- designed to fit into your décor -- fit into wall, ceiling, and even outdoors. The popular choice is in–ceiling speakers. Today’s technology brings robust sound with speakers that you barely see.
Touchscreens
Our IP based touchscreens control music from multiple sources at separate volumes in separate rooms. When you leave the house, you can shut down the system with one special touch.
Video (back to top)
Take full control of your home theatre by automating your components. Your Home Theatre can be seamlessly integrated with your lighting system so when you push play the lights automatically dim to create your viewing atmosphere. We integrate the home with the home theatre.
Know What's Happening
Someone rings the front door, and the screen switches to the front door. You see and hear who is calling, and with a push of button you let them into the home. It is just that easy. You can not only view the front, but you can also watch the kids in the driveway, pool area, and even the kids playroom.
Always Professional
The result is a professional installation that you can be proud of. And no matter how many levels of integration there are in the home -- from a family room Home Theater to a dedicated Home Theater that integrates with a house-wide system -- many hours of Home Theater experience can be enjoyed with ease.
Networking (back to top)
SoHo - Small Office/Home Office
The question of whether to choose a wired or a wireless network is still a pretty simple question. The answer depends on how you intend to use the network. If you have a wireless laptop that you take back and forth between home and work, then a wireless connection is a must. But if you want to keep your computer files private, or want to watch high definition television and listen to a house-wide music system, the only way to go is a wired network and its underlying structured wiring. Wired networks have been around for years. They use the most affordable products and provide the fastest speeds for data transmission.
Wireless Networks
Wireless networks are relatively new, but they are quickly becoming more popular. Their cost is also lower than when first on the market. Since they don't require cables, you can use devices, such as laptop computers, anywhere in an office or home.
