At Connections 2014, NETGEAR showcased several solutions that help power the connected home including the latest in home monitoring and automation, such as the recently announced Security Touch Screen (STS7000) and Ocuity IP Cameras, and in home security and cable gateways to ensure consumers can gain access and control their connected devices in the home.
