OK, so I'm refurbing a house, 1800 sq/ft, 2 story.
Wiring throughout with ethernet and coax.
Verizon FiOS. House already had it, intervening residents went with cable and/or Dish (ewww). ONT already there, but may need to be replaced.
Replacing the existing 25year old incredibly crappy coax wiring.
2 ethernet drops to each room, multiple drops in the entertainment area.
House on slab, so no underneath access. Full attic access.
Current concept:
Verizon router to 24 port switch to patch panel to room locations.
2 ports off the Verizon router direct to a couple of locations, due to a couple of devices needing direct access to the router.
A couple of 8 port switches in the necessary locations.
Will be using Cat5e and RG6
This will all be wired and walls sealed long before the FiOS installation.
No single run over 75 feet/25 meters.
Any gotchas I should be aware of?
