Hello,
we are planning our new build with a developer and have an appointment with the electrician soon.
I am working on the LAN planning.
I will plan enough LAN connections for every room and also in the garage.
Should we use a mesh Wi-Fi router system, for example Netgear Orbi, Amazon Eero (one unit on each floor or in the most important rooms, which can be expanded as needed if there are coverage gaps) or something similar, or does it have to be an expensive PoE access point network?
I would say we are users with a higher-than-average standard.
I want to have good Wi-Fi coverage throughout the house so that I always have enough Wi-Fi on my phone for browsing.
A speed of 50–100 Mbps on the phone would be sufficient, but it should be stable (we will have a 500 Mbps or maybe only a 250 Mbps connection).
Do the access points have to be PoE devices mounted on the ceiling, or is that maybe a bit too much for us?
Or is a regular mesh router system (e.g., Netgear Orbi) enough for us?
Running the PoE cables will most likely be very expensive with the electrician (typical for developer projects :/ ).

I have a second question: Can I also connect regular LAN devices to a PoE switch?Be careful! I have had devices that didn’t handle this well in certain combinations. The devices got extremely hot at the transformer, which can’t be good. It also depends on the PoE standard and other factors.
Usually, though, you can simply disable the PoE function per port on the switch—so yes. 🙂

DIN 18015-2 doesn’t mention laying network cables in conduits without reason. Of course, it depends on whether this standard is included in the contract.
It’s best to plan generously for the bending radii in the curves right from the start—just in case you want to pull in fiber optic cables later on.

As I mentioned in another post: Nothing is more future-proof than a conduit with sufficient diameter! sysrun80 schrieb:

I will instruct the electrician to run all satellite and LAN cables inside conduit according to DIN 18015-2.
Let's see how he reacts—whether he immediately says no problem or refuses to do it 😀

I will instruct the electrician to install all satellite and LAN cables inside conduit pipes according to DIN 18015-2. Then please say, or even better, put in writing: "to be installed inside conduit pipes in a way that allows replacement without damage."
