I ran cat 6 around the house a few years ago. Although I wished I had taken a different approach.
I use a 10 port switch in the office upstairs, this uses a few ports to distribute to the living room, dining room garage and conservatory. Each room then has another 10 port switch in for connections to equipment. I had to take the cabling up to the ceiling in the office and then round the loft and drill holes in the soffits to run the cabling externally and then into each room.
One of the ports in the conservatory also takes another feed part way (approx. 80-100 metres) down the garden to the gym and cinema again I have another 10 port switch in there. Never had any issues with distance using cat 6. I just bought the cheap stuff from Kenable. |
