Whole Home Smart TV Mounting & Cabling: Brookfield/Waukesha/New Berlin/Menomonee Falls, WI

Equipment List:

Whole Home Smart TV Moutning & Cabling, EERO Netowrk & Cat6 Hardwired Network

Thank you to our recent client in the Chaucer Subdivision of Brookfield! We’ve had the pleasure of working for several clients in this beautiful neighborhood over the years, helping each one personalize their home entertainment and network systems with our custom solutions.

This project involved mounting three TVs and creating a clean, cable-free setup with in-wall cabling. In the Great Room, we installed a 65″ Samsung FRAME TV, carefully running all necessary cabling through the wall to a discreet furniture piece below the display. The FRAME TV provides a unique aesthetic touch, transforming into artwork when not in use, which complements the room’s ambiance.

Downstairs, in the basement family room, we mounted the client’s 65″ LG OLED TV on a tilt mount, allowing for an optimized viewing angle that makes movie nights more comfortable for everyone.

For the upstairs den, the client had specific requests to position their LG OLED TV below the fireplace for a cozier, more immersive experience. To meet this need, we selected the 700 Series Mantle Mount, a versatile solution that allows the client to easily lower, raise, tilt, and swivel the TV for perfect viewing angles. The Mantle Mount is particularly beneficial in spaces where wall height might otherwise compromise comfort, making it a fantastic choice for fireplaces and high-mounted displays.

In addition to the mounting work, BC Neville Tech ensured surge protection in all locations, safeguarding the client’s valuable electronics from power fluctuations and providing them peace of mind.

To support seamless streaming and connectivity, our experienced technicians installed hardwired network cabling to each TV location, as well as several other areas throughout the home. Hardwiring the network significantly boosts streaming speeds, ensuring smooth performance for media, gaming, and work needs. We integrated the new cabling into an Eero mesh network system, which extends the reach of the Spectrum router, delivering a strong and consistent wireless and wired connection for every device in the home.

BC Neville Tech takes pride in providing both reliable technology and thoughtful design to enhance your home’s functionality. Our custom AV and network solutions are tailored to meet each client’s specific needs, helping you enjoy your entertainment and connected home to the fullest.

Ironwood Golf Club: Hartland/ Delafield/ Pewaukee, WI

Equipment List:

JBL Commercial Audio System and PA Upgrade  

As I do in many of my blog posts, I wanted to start this one by thanking a wonderful client for entrusting BC Neville Technology as their technology partner. 

Ironwood is no different; this system has been the culmination of an eight-year relationship that has grown in trust, resulting in today’s blog: Main Clubhouse JBL Commercial & Speaker Upgrade.

Whether in homes or businesses across southeastern Wisconsin, we take our job very seriously and work very hard every day with a single goal in mind…to deliver successful projects. 

Ironwood Gold Club is a perfect example of a client we have worked with for over eight years.  BC Neville Tech was initially contacted to supply a new Shure Commercial Wireless MIC for an exterior event space for outings, weddings, and events. 

After installing that solution, the trust from ownership and management grew over the years to total control over all Golf Facilities and Event facilities. Currently, they were a hodgepodge of five separate 20+-year-old Commercial Audio Systems, which were obsolete and offered no Smart Control or streaming. The client acknowledged the poor design and sound.

Utilizing our industry-leading thirty years of experience, we worked with Ironwood to completely upgrade all facilities. Working within their yearly technology improvement budget, we transformed the multiple facilities used for multi-purpose sporting and event activities into a single JBL Commercial System, which can be independently controlled or controlled together as a single global system.

Management could not be happier following the 2024 upgrade of the main clubhouse, sending us a text saying, “Sound system is working awesome! Thanks! Mike” 

This most recent upgrade included adding eight speakers, including Episode, Proficient, JBL premium on-wall and rock speakers, and 3 JBL Professional PA Horns. BC Neville worked directly to develop a design the client was comfortable with, which met all of the client’s and business’s needs. 

Our experienced technicians then implemented the system design, which included upgraded equipment, cabling, and speaker upgrades. Our professional technicians professionally integrated all existing equipment with the upgraded system and then handed the system off to facilities management, following a thorough system run-through and training.

Smart House Upgrade and Media Room: Existing Construction Residential

Thank you, so much Marshall & Diana! 

One of our recent whole-home smart house upgrades includes a dedicated media room. We’ll get into the technical aspects of this project in a moment. First, we want to focus our time on working with Marshall and Diana on planning and implementing their vision, highlighting their gorgeous high-end 85″ Samsung Home Theater.

Our smart home upgrades have completely transformed this home from tech out-of-date to the most modern smart home. The changes, though mostly behind the scenes, are significant. They include: Whole Home Wired & WIFI Conversion & Upgrade, Smart Camera System with Deep Learning & Facial Recognition, Whole Home HD Antenna, Smart Music, and an integrated Smart System Controller and App interface. 

Our clients, Marshall and Diana, have just started enjoying the benefits of their new smart home. While we can’t predict the future, we’re confident that their home will continue to deliver over the years and decades to come. This is the result of our thorough understanding of their needs and wants, which is always our starting point.

Next, it is our job to identify the equipment and design(s) that best accomplish the prospective client’s needs and wants. In many cases, two or more options meet or exceed the client’s needs and wants.

In this case, it is our job to educate the client about the differences between those options so that the client can make a fully informed decision. This was very much the case with Marshall and Diana, who were wonderful to work with from the beginning.

They knew what they wanted, and from our initial on-site consultation, the communication was top-notch. This allowed us to deliver a solution that exactly fit every parameter Marshall and Diana laid out for us at design. This ideal client relationship provides for a seamless transfer of ownership of the system after training. 

It also allows the client to be as involved in the process as they desire. The result is a better client understanding of the system’s operation and more use of home entertainment and smart home systems. 
We will now dive into this project’s specific services, equipment, and system design. 

This client contacted us from our industry-leading 5-star rating on Google and 30 years of experience designing and installing some of southeastern Wisconsin’s most prestigious home and business entertainment, smart home, and lighting control systems. 

We bring this experience and commitment to excellence to every project we undertake. This client requested a “Turn-Key Great Room Entertainment System” with several ancillary needs, including poor internet signal, fortifying the perimeter of the home and yard, and supplementing TV coverage with streaming and a Long-Range HD Antenna.

Our experienced design staff listened to the client’s needs for each of these different technology systems. Our system designer identified the equipment that met or exceeded the clinics’ needs and developed three separate designs representing each of those options. The client then selected the system that best fits their household’s individual and specific needs.
 
Great Room Entertainment System: Featuring an 85″ Samsung: QN90 4K Smart TV with a Snap AV: Episode Premium Soundbar, Strong: Heavy Duty Professional Articulating Arm Mount, 1Pair 8″ premium Snap AV In-Ceiling Rear Speakers, Yamaha RX-A4 Smart Receiver and a Universal Remote Control MX 990: Smart System controller.  The previous equipment drives the Great Room Entertainment System. 

In the Attic, we installed an ultra-long-range HD antenna to bring HD programming to the home while supplementing cable stations with streaming.  This allowed the client to cancel their cable TV subscription.
Whole Home Smart Wifi & Wired Internet:  The client raised low internet signal and range issues.

In today’s home entertainment/smart home world, no aspect is as important as a strong, reliable, and secure home network. Araknis network components deliver just that; this client’s outdated home network and cabling were brought up to date using 2) Range Access Points, a High Power Dual WAN Router, and a strategically placed 24-Port POE Switch.

BC Neville Tech’s industry-leading System Designer and Custom Installation techs worked hand in hand to both utilize and convert the existing CAT5 cabling used for phones to Network outlets, ready to be used for any of the various modern technologies that require wired internet connectivity. 

Additionally, BC Neville Tech’s experienced technicians ran cabling for any devices needing wired internet, including the (2) Long-Range Access points, solving the range limitations the client raised at the initial consultation.

Now, the client experiences an extremely fast wired network connection for streaming, surveillance cameras, and many more devices.  Secondly, they no longer have range issues or drop-out spots within their home or extensive outdoor living space. 

Once Again, thank you to this client and all of our past clients. We love bringing your dreams to life!
