Hi, looking for some advice on the installation of CAT 6 LAN points and how they should be routed? My plan is to have my optical network network termination point and ONT to be located inside the shoe cabinet.

Shoe Cabinet: ONT TP -> ONT -> CAT 6 data point

LAN Point at TV Console: Will connect to my Asus WiFi router -> wired connection to TV

LAN Point at Study Room: Meant to connect to my PC

In this case, is there a need for me to install a dumb switch in the shoe cabinet? I’m not quite sure how the cables should run from the shoe cabinet since there are 2 endpoints (TV Console area and the Study room)?

Also wondering if the green arrows that I drew below in the diagram is correct?

    Imho putting this in your apartment living room is going to create more problems/issues than it’s worth.

    I would ditch the idea, or hire someone to set up a network and bring everything back to a closet or something. I think this is what high end mesh systems were designed for. Check out Amplifi and netgear orbis. They are the only ones I have any experience with.
