Providing cat6 wiring around the house

2024-05-15 07:00:02

I am new to this so bear with me. Can I fit desktop switch in my loft run one single cat6 cable from the router to the switch and then run extensions to various rooms from the switch in the loft space. It will make life much easier as the route from the router to the loft is difficult so just running one cable will make life much easier. Thanks Peter

@Devonlad

That seems to be the normal way for cabling your premises. Just make sure you've chosen the right switch for you in terms of:

1) number of ports

2) at least gigabit port connectivity
