5 Reasons Why You Need a Robust Outdoor Network Setup

As much as we spend a great deal of time indoors, we're not always inside. Especially here in Georgia, where the mild climate beckons us outside to enjoy our outdoor spaces. When outdoors, we still want to be connected to all the email, texts, apps, and entertainment that are a big part of our lives. That's why you need an outdoor network setup as potent as your indoor connectivity. Please stay with us as we detail why you need robust networking that extends beyond the walls of your Atlanta home.

Networking for Personal Devices

In today's connected world, seamless outdoor Wi-Fi is a must for ensuring uninterrupted video calls, work, social media, and more in the comfort of your backyard. With a professionally configured and installed robust outdoor network, you can leverage the full potential of your personal devices without skipping a beat. Indoors or out, you and your guests stay connected to what matters most.

Outdoor Entertainment

Enhancing your outdoor entertainment in Atlanta means ensuring your TVs, speakers, and other devices work flawlessly during backyard gatherings. A stable outdoor network setup, facilitated by wired connections, guarantees your entertainment doesn't glitch or drop a frame or note. Robust Wi-Fi ensures your smart device or controller can instantly start the music or show, while a wired connection to the outdoor smart TV provides smooth, high-resolution video streaming. Whether it's an outdoor game-watch party or a family movie night on a balmy summer evening, your entertainment flows uninterrupted. 

Connectivity in Outdoor Living Spaces

The true power of a good outdoor network shines when managing your home automation systems right from the palm of your hand, whether you're lounging by the pool or sitting around the fire pit. The right network setup ensures you can control lighting, music, security systems, and more directly from your smartphone, tablet, or specialized remote controls. This seamless connectivity elevates your entertainment and integrates the entirety of your outdoor space into your smart home ecosystem, offering unparalleled convenience and control.

Garage Networking

Having a robust outdoor network setup extends into the garage, offering significant benefits. More cars are now internet-connected for various reasons, and a strong network connection is essential for receiving software updates that fix problems or even add new features. If your vehicle is electric, network connectivity is also necessary to schedule, control, and optimize the charging process. Beyond cars, garages are also places for small DIY projects. Easy access to instructional online videos or equipment instructions can help you quickly complete a project. Connectivity is also essential for garage security cameras or connected door openers integrated with your smart home system. 

Security and Surveillance

A comprehensive outdoor network is crucial for supporting high-quality security cameras and surveillance systems around your property. Reliable connectivity ensures these systems function uninterrupted, providing real-time monitoring and alerts for enhanced security. In particular, GHT recommends wired security camera connections for power and connectivity, ensuring your system is always vigilant and ready. Your wired or wireless coverage may also need to extend to a smart lock or access control system that extends to an outside gate or entry onto your property.

Professional-Grade Systems and Installation

A professional-grade network starts with an analysis of your connectivity needs outdoors. For wireless coverage, we look at all the places on your property where you need wireless connectivity, and we use guidelines that determine how many outdoor wireless access points you might require. We also take into account entertainment like outdoor music and TV setups. We map out network cable wiring to all the locations needed, like TVs, wireless access points, security cameras, and other devices. 

Your system might require other upgrades to support additional outdoor network traffic. Smart network switches intelligently handle multiple wired device connections, and the switch itself can be remotely monitored and controlled for reliability. A new router with more modern technology like Wi-Fi 6, which supports more simultaneous connections and greater traffic capacity and speeds, may be needed. For the ultimate in reliable home connectivity inside and out, your network setup can be remotely monitored and updated to ensure optimal performance and uptime.

From your garden to your garage, our solutions ensure every corner of your property is connected, elevating your lifestyle with seamless control and entertainment options.
