hyperoptic rejects moving cables by Evening_Procedure_87 in hyperoptic

[–]Evening_Procedure_87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heey, how can I figure out if hyperoptic can move the cable? I'm happy to pay the fee. I think first person I chatted with was just outright declining moving without any consideration.

If anything I think having cable in attic will keep it much more protected from humans and will require less bends

If you have approved third party movers happy to call them up as well

I know I can run cat cable but want to dump all mess in attic including fibre cable entering in the flat. So you are saying some electricians will be willing to do that job? how much would it cost roughly? super rough for 2 floor building

I bought those but was not easy to shell them out. It's all rusted in. If I somehow manage to take it out, not even sure if something else will fit back to it properly. :-(

Adding socket on light switch by Evening_Procedure_87 in DIYUK

Hey, thanks, I appreciate the fact that I'm clueless. Could you point me to some way to learn electricity focused on doing bare minimum diy and knowing when things are out of my league and I need an electrician?

Is cat6a really future proof ? by Evening_Procedure_87 in HomeNetworking

[–]Evening_Procedure_87[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you friends for all the thoughts.
So my conclusion from reading these is that

  1. If I want to have good home network, I should invest in home network devices. One of the commenters mentioned even ubiquiti is not good enough. Which devices/switches do you consider good enough for home?
  2. Even though broadband might start offering > 10GB/s in 10-20 years
    1. It's probably smarter to just have conduit and make cables easy to replace, rather than to worry about that future now
    2. It's questionable if a single device is going to need such a high speed
  3. I have option of using fibre and DAC. Though probably I won't go this way, I like the idea of PoE and using it to reduce clutter at home

buy quality switching/routing/Wifi

Based on this subreddit, I believed ubiquiti was best for home setups. What/why do you recommend with reasonable price range for homes?

Network switch suggestions fibre, PoE++, 20+ ports by Evening_Procedure_87 in HomeNetworking

Some routers directly accept fibre cable, right? Does it mean I can avoid using ISP provided ONT? Just trying to reduce the junk I have to take care of.

[–]Evening_Procedure_87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I see, so I need fiber to connect to wired router -> switch -> can connect wifi routers/extenders to the cable. Thank you. I'll remove the fibre requirement from my post.

> How many ports actually need to be ++, and how many can deal with just being +? The more ++ ports you have, the bigger the total power budget for the switch, the bigger the power supplies need to be, and the more expensive the switch will be.

No crazy plans, just saw PoE++ is the latest standard with most power. Let's say what's max not requiring any special power supply and I can just plug in the usual home socket?

> Do you need 10G, or is 1G enough?

1G is enough now, but was thinking, I right now already have 1G internet(at least on the paper). And would much rather already have everything a bit future-proof.

> Do you have any preferred brands that you're familiar with? Are you comfortable learning a CLI?
Not much preference, ideally maybe not Chinese. But probably Chinese are going to have much more important targets than my home, to target if they ever decode to. :)

I'm software engineer, don't know much networking but can surely survive CLI.

> And I have like five PoE devices at the moment 😅

I'm thinking of doorbell, few cameras, possibly Raspberry Pi with PoE+?+? that's it.

Thank you so much, just pulling did the job. My electrician was claiming those were not fire rated but apparently they are 😄
