ed: several Luma high-def cameras hardwired
to the high-speed fiber-optic network; Episode
indoor and outdoor loudspeakers; indoor
and outdoor Araknis WiFi access points; plus
streaming media devices and displays.
From any mobile device, Stoney J's employees
can view real-time and recorded video captured
by the cameras and stream music to speakers and
video - including winery schedule and menu
items - to smart displays. Particularly helpful
are instant alerts the Stoney J's management receives
on mobile devices when any security camera
notices movement at a building's entrance.
" It's their signal of a delivery. They can confirm
visually who and what that delivery is and
respond accordingly - no rushing out to the
far reaches of the property if unnecessary. The
addition of the networked cameras alone has
made day-to-day operations so much smoother, "
Ruredzo says.
To maintain seamless connectivity free from
dropouts and latency RMS Install outfitted
each building, from the tasting room to the
production facility, with a network router,
switch, access point and WattBox IP battery
backup with built-in OvrC monitoring software,
all tucked into a Strong equipment rack.
This rack consists of multiple OvrC integrated
products to give RMS Install full visibility and insight
into the network and every device connected
to it. Should a camera, streaming media device
or access point fall offline, RMS can quickly fix
the problem - no need to roll a truck to the
winery or cause costly downtime for Stoney J's.
For additional peace of mind, the Luma
cameras notify RMS Install when they sense
movement after hours.
One-Stop Shopping
Planned for Phase 2 Too
Also optimizing the network are separate VPNs
configured by RMS Install to segment WiFi
traffic. This ensures no matter how many guests
are accessing WiFi, the technologies working
behind the scenes at Stoney J's have adequate
bandwidth for failsafe operation.
Today, the Stoney J's team uses mobile devices
to manage the networked Snap One products.
It's simple and effective, but now that the
owners have witnessed the positive impact the
technology has had on their business, they're
ready to take it up a notch.
Soon, RMS Install will revisit the winery
to add WiFi-enabled door locks to the outsecuritysales.com

buildings, a full-blown security system, and a
Control4 automation system. Like the original
yearlong project, the technology for phase 2
will come from one source - Snap One.
" For a technology integration firm involved
in large, complex installations like Stoney J's,
product procurement is easier and faster from
an all-inclusive company like Snap One, "
Ruredzo explains. " Plus, we know that everything
available under the Snap One umbrella
has been validated to work well together. "
With the wiring infrastructure and the connected
technologies firmly established as key
players in Stoney J's rock-solid foundation, the
new solutions will sync naturally into the advanced
high-tech ecosystem, setting a course
for continued success. SSI
RMS Installs of Woodstock,
Ga., outfitted Stoney J's Farm

monitoring platform to enable
