I havw my synology router in the basement and was going to add 3 additional cable runs ( 2 to the first floor and 1 to the 3rd floor). I like more hardwire that wireless though the synology works well ( except for the fact that you can's seperate VLANs on the Synology. I was thinking of just running CAt6A since the labor costs shouldnt be too much and the lengths not that long. I do want to have POE capabilities as I am thinking of switchting to the TP Link Omada ecosystem.
So, I appeciate recommendations for:
1) I was going to just ahed and use CAT6A ( As an electrician will have to deal with it). I was wondering if
A) Any specific brand of CAT6A - i was going to use the Truecable solid copper
B) When doing the wall jacks, is there preferred method of using a female to fenale or just a punchdown keystone jack? Any brand recommendation
2) Is CAT6A overkill? We will be in the house for another 2-3 years so futureproofing will only benefit new occupants (unless they are not technically inclined and just get consumer wireless)
3) With respect to 1 and 2, other main goal is to avoid being featured on the wall of shame
