My dad’s moving into a new build house. Big place, thick walls, concrete floors. Fancy schmancy ground source heating, uber everything, CAT 7 cables throughout.
Problem is internet and phone. He’s got a DECT phone in his current house, which won’t cut it in the new house. WiFi would need 3 or 4 repeaters. So what interfaces would he need to run and access phone and internet through the CAT7 cabling? He might still have a 2 or three zones coming off it, office might just be wired to the PC. Phone would be in 5 rooms maybe.
I’m trying to help him finding out what he needs, but the thing I’m finding, as he has done, that when you’re trying to look up stuff about Cat6/7 cabling interfaces, you’re drowned in info about pros and cons of 5/5e/6/7 cabling, 4K video streaming, multimedia house interconnection, future of wired/wireless. Can’t seem to filter my searches enough to find much about the basics.
Can anyone help with hints? Search terms? Links? Guides?
Thanks loads!
