 One of the most important backbones in our home is the network infrastructure. We ran CAT7 cables in all rooms, used them for the light switches (see next section) and for the alarm system (see later section). Orange CAT7 cables are either network or light, blue CAT7 cables are alarm system cables.  One of the most important backbones in our home is the network infrastructure.

-Most of the network is run by a TP-Link T-1600G switch which features 48-Ports and PoE+ on every port with a total power capacity of 384W. It's a L2+ switch, so it provides VLAN and some advanced switching stuff. For Internet access, an Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-X powered by OpenWrt is used. All other switches and the WiFi APs are also VLAN capable: That's important, because we defined three VLANs in our home:+Most of the network is run by two core switches: ZyXEL GS1900-24HPv2 and HPE JG927A. Both are L2+ switches, so they provide VLAN and some advanced switching stuff. For Internet access, an DreiNeo Pro powered by OpenWrt is used. All other switches and the WiFi APs are also VLAN capable: That's important, because we defined three VLANs in our home:
  
   * VLAN "Management": for configuring devices; does not have Internet access   * VLAN "Management": for configuring devices; does not have Internet access

-The access points (a TP-Link Archer C7 and a TP-Link EAP221) are also powered by OpenWrt and provide two WiFi networks, one bridge to "Private" and one bridge to "Technik". This way, also the wireless appliances can be added to an "untrusted" network section.+The access points (Extreme Networks WS-AP3915i) are also powered by OpenWrt and provide one WiFi network with different keys, one bridge to "Private" and one bridge to "Technik". This way, also the wireless appliances can be added to an "untrusted" network section.

 The newly installed floor heating can be controlled via wall thermostats as well as over IP: The control modules are Möhlenhoff Alpha 2 IP systems that provide an XML interface. The newly installed floor heating can be controlled via wall thermostats as well as over IP: The control modules are Möhlenhoff Alpha 2 IP systems that provide an XML interface.
  
-As we have a few older radiators, I installed HomeMatic wireless thermostats, wireless wall thermostats and I'm using [[http://www.homegear.eu|Homegear]] as central coordinator. Homegear provides a CCU interface and is therefore easily integrated into Home Assistant.+As we have a few older radiators, I installed HomeMatic wireless thermostats, wireless wall thermostats and te CCU interface and it is therefore easily integrated into Home Assistant.

-We have shutters around the house, driven by Elero and Somfy remotes. For the Elero-based shutters, I did a lot of research and finally went for two Mediola v4 gateways. I got them used for a few euros, each gateway can control up to 15 Elero shutters. As integration, I wrote [[http://github.com/andyboeh/mediola2mqtt|mediola2mqtt]], which makes certain Mediola devices available via MQTT, including auto discovery for Home Assistant.+We have shutters around the house, driven by Elero and Somfy remotes.
