A system and method for providing data services and controllable power to each one of a plurality of end points in a structure. The system comprises a network, a source of power, a concentrator connected to the network and remote network devices/controllers connected to the network with a remote network device/controller located at an end point. The remote network devices/controllers receive power from the source of power and supply controllable power to one or both of networked and non-networked controlled devices connected to the remote network devices/controllers. The networked controlled devices send data to and receive data from the remote network device/controller, and data is communicated between the remote network device/controller and the concentrator. The power supplied to the networked and non-networked controlled devices is controlled at the source of power or at an associated remote network device/controller.
