Guidance on home network wiring.

Thanks for the heads up. Issue at the moment is where to locate any sort of switch Hub. I’m assuming that any wall plates will need deep back boxes.

With back boxes go as deep as you can. Idea being you can coil a little bit extra cable in there so you have scope to easily re-terminate if required or simply want to swap the fronts.

When I say a little extra 300mm or so wouldn't go amiss, especially when try to do the punch downs on the back you have more room.

They bang on about for hours & hours backwards & forwards. Its like someone on here asking how to wire up a hot tub.

You wanna future proof!

Think I’ll go for a superduper Terranibble system!

I’m going to try and get some decent size trunking into the walls. Are there any cable support issues running under floor boards as I see that could be a good area to hide a bit of slack?
