>> What should one install now Major thing is to install a conduit system that allows easy pull-through of whatever you might want in the future. PVC pipe is very cool for this, and cheap. Routing and distal termination of the conduit interacts with the tween-wall design ... envision the PVC terminating end distributing various wire types to their several connection points. Use 3" or 4" for the conduit trunk, smaller for the room drops. Good idea to thread n+1 pull-through strings to each termination while assembling ... the telco guy may whine unless you present him with dangling strings. Start with the termination closet - consider panel space for -- breakerbox -- telco punchdown -- LAN punchdown -- home security -- audio -- CATV, sat -- HVAC -- space, power for 1 (probably 2) LAN servers -- conduit origin Design backwards ... if you're going to be in the house for 20 years, imagine how you will be configured then ... consider home automation, internet appliances, fiber LAN, etc, etc ... look for any major variations in future connection points and design the distribution for it now. Consider drop-panel ceilings in rooms likely to change a lot ... office, kitchen.
