Location: Sonoma County, California Client: Residential client Property Type: Residential property with detached garage and distributed smart infrastructure



Overview


Clear Telecommunications was hired to install a complete low-voltage system for a private residence in Sonoma County — including network infrastructure, security cameras, wireless access points, and a full Starlink setup. The project combined careful planning with precise execution, resulting in a clean, reliable system built for long-term performance.


Rack & Mounting Infrastructure


The team began by creating a solid foundation for the network:

  • A 2U wall-mount bracket was installed inside the main house on a 2'x2' primed plywood panel, anchored to structural studs.

  • A 1U wall-mount bracket was mounted in the garage for additional hardware.

  • All mounts were placed with accessibility, ventilation, and serviceability in mind.

Patch Panels & Cable Management

To centralize connectivity:

  • Two 24-port patch panels were installed — one in the house, one in the garage — aligned with precision.

  • All Cat6 cables were terminated, labeled, and tested for signal integrity.

  • 2-inch D-rings and cable management techniques were used to maintain a clean layout and reduce interference.

  • Patch cords were sized to minimize slack while ensuring easy access.

  • Bend radius was respected on all runs, with terminations completed using punch-down and crimping tools.

Device Installation & Configuration

The newly installed network was built to support a range of smart devices across the property:

  • Five security cameras were installed with attention to sightlines, weatherproofing, and cable concealment.

  • Two wireless access points were placed for optimal coverage.

  • All devices were powered, configured, and tested in collaboration with Ben from Noma-Tek to ensure full network integration.

Starlink Integration

As part of the overall connectivity plan:

  • The Starlink dish was mounted using a custom bracket, positioned for ideal satellite line-of-sight.

  • Cabling was routed cleanly and connected to the home’s main network infrastructure.

  • Installation followed Clear’s standards for durability, safety, and minimal visual impact.Installation adhered to Clear’s standards for durability and minimal visual impact.
