IES Contributes in Tulane University School of Architecture Remodeling Project.SANDY, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 4, 1997--Intelligent Electronic Solutions (IES) Inc. Monday announced the company collaborated with the School of Architecture at Tulane University History Founding/early history The University dates from 1834 as the Medical College of Louisiana.<ref name="facts" /> With the addition of a law department, it became The University of Louisiana on a residential remodeling remodeling /re·mod·el·ing/ (re-mod´el-ing) reorganization or renovation of an old structure. bone remodeling project used as a case study for the school's architecture students. Specifically, IES products were used to provide a renovated New Orleans New Orleans (ôr`lēənz –lənz, ôrlēnz`), city (2006 pop. 187,525), coextensive with Orleans parish, SE La., between the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain, 107 mi (172 km) by water from the river mouth; founded home with an intelligent distribution network for voice, data, video and audio systems and equipment. "We are very pleased to have been selected by the School of Architecture to participate in this remodeling project. This case study will give architecture students a chance to learn about efficient structured wiring products and intelligent electronic signal distribution systems. It's a great compliment to have been chosen as the 'model' product line for this unique undertaking," said Russ Warner Russ Warner was a Democratic Party Congressional candidate in the California's 26th congressional district against incumbent David Dreier. He lost the June 6 primary to Cynthia Matthews, who ran against Dreier in 2004, by almost 10% [1]. , vice president of marketing and sales at IES Inc. IES products will provide the 3,100 square foot remodeled home a complete network for telephones, faxes, modems, computers, cable/satellite/antennae TV, and other video systems, as well as a whole-house audio distribution system. Products installed in the home include a HotWired 8 FutureProof(TM) Interactive Network (FIN(TM)) Panel, an Audio Node "0" Panel, an Ethernet Hub A device that all lines on an Ethernet segment are plugged into. 10Base-T and 100Base-T Ethernets are star networks and require a hub for operation. The earlier 10Base5 and 10Base2 Ethernets are bus networks, but are often wired into a star configuration using a central hub for improved , SpeedWrap(TM) Cable, and wall receptacles from IES. Specifically, the house was wired home-run style with IES' SpeedWrap Cable, which includes Category 5 twisted pair A thin-diameter wire (22 to 26 gauge) commonly used for telephone and network cabling. The wires are twisted around each other to minimize interference from other twisted pairs in the cable (Alexander Graham Bell invented this and was awarded a patent for it in 1881). (telephone/data), quad shield RG6 coax Same as coaxial cable. coax - coaxial cable , and multi-mode fiber See multimode fiber. optic cables. IES FutureProof(TM) Interactive Receptacles (FIRs(TM)), which are specialized wall plates, were installed in six rooms to provide the in-room connection to each electronic signal network. As a result, the home will have multiple locations for telephone, fax, modem, and cable/satellite/antennae TV signals, as well as support for an in-home computer network. Also, the IES Audio Node "0" distribution panel will provide the foundation for a multi-room audio system with separate room controls and speakers. "We were very impressed with the IES product line and its capabilities. As a result, we have created an efficient residence wired for today's technologies and those anticipated in the future. It is important to expose future architects to emerging construction technology as a basis for their respective educational and professional careers," noted Stephen Verderber, Arch.D. Professor, Tulane University, School of Architecture and Co-Principal, R-2 ARCH/Los Angeles and New Orleans. IES designs and manufactures a complete signal distribution system that collects and intelligently distributes electronic signals such as computer and computer network, telephone, fax, modem, ISDN ISDN in full Integrated Services Digital Network Digital telecommunications network that operates over standard copper telephone wires or other media. , cable and satellite TV, audio, video, digital, and security for homes and businesses. These innovative products in combination give buildings and homes ready access to the latest in computing, automation, entertainment and security, and will FutureProof(TM) the investment for emerging technologies.
