UStec provides homeowners with the wiring infrastructure they need to distribute and connect video, data, and voice signals for home entertainment and home networking. Founded in 1992, UStec pioneered the development of structured wiring for homes, becoming one of the first residential structured wiring network providers in the country. Toward the end of the 1990s, with the exploding popularity of computers and the Internet, UStec recognized a significant opportunity to wire houses like offices — making it possible for home computers to easily share files, printers, and Web access accounts.
