New construction is being wired up next week and I'm clueless. - eviltoast

The contractor asked me how I want things wired and I didn’t really know.

I was thinking Cat6 ethernet cable with a wall plate in each room. They would all run to the crawl space where I’d have my modem and NAS.

It’s a small house. Only 5 ethernet wall plates throughout.

Is there anything I should ask for? I use Plex and IPTV.

Thanks.

    2 to every wallplate 2 to every known TV and even some dream TV locations i.e. garage and patio I would also ask for smurf tubing here 2 to Audio cabinet if applicable smurf tube here as well Every potential security camera spot Door bell location Potential WAP locations If ever adding an ADU I’d run smurf tube to the nearest corner of the house to that structure

    If you aren’t sure about a location, smurf tube it
