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.

    I would also run OM4 fiber to your drops. Fiber is cheap, small and can already support 100gbit.

    If you want futureproof throw in some OM4.
