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.

    If he’s terminating each end too and has the equipment get him to test and certify each cable for you. Means you know they were working before he left. Proper labeling of each end is also essential.

    Never run a single cable when it’s just as easy to run 2 or more at the same time. Gives redundancy and/or expansion.
