Capitol Going All-In On IoT At CEDIA 2017
Capitol, the distribution source for residential systems and light commercial contractors, as well as CE dealers, will feature its latest smart-home line at CEDIA.
Home controls that fall under the IoT banner will be a key component of Capitol’s display, with Nest products featured alongside Works with Nest components that give homeowners easy access to security, lighting, and more through the Nest app. A featured Works with Nest selection will include Ring’s line of advanced technology video doorbells, Capitol said, as well as Schlage and August locks.

In addition, LG Commercial will exhibit commercial displays that bring smart-TV benefits to commercial spaces. Read more…
