Hager technical control center or server cabinet?

What type of TV reception is planned? Is IPTV (e.g., Telekom Magenta TV) a topic?

Currently still cable (Vodafone is included for the first year after moving in). But I am also open to something else. Conduits for satellite would be available. But IPTV is certainly also an alternative, as long as I don’t have any interruptions while watching TV.

With IPTV, Unifi switches are currently ruled out as they do not offer IGMP. That only works with a lot of tinkering. There are no dropouts to fear. We have been using it for almost 10 years now and it just keeps running.

However, with IPTV you have to distinguish whether the data transmission is via Unicast or Multicast. IGMPv3 is only needed for Multicast transmissions. As far as I know, currently only Telekom with Magenta TV uses this technology. IPTV from 1&1 is, for example, Unicast.

For 3 access points and one camera, I would directly go for a 16-port POE switch. I think the Unifi access points are good but I find the switches expensive. Of course, it is easier to configure the devices via software, but how often do you really change something, and then you can also configure the switch separately. With a POE switch you usually cannot use all ports with POE anyway, then each switch has a total POE budget and single devices can already consume that. You should also consider the POE standard. Depending on the POE devices used, you should choose the switch. Just tell me what you want to install. With VLAN you will probably need less, because standard routers can do that except for the guest network.

What is the reason that only single sockets were installed? This way, you will probably need an additional switch for TV or office.

In the end, it doesn't matter what each provider uses. If I want to remain free in my choice of provider, the switch should support everything. Whether it's 1&1, Telekom, Vodafone, etc.
A good switch lasts for years.

In the living room, I installed a duplex outlet. We had to reduce the rest for cost reasons because the electrician wanted a considerable surcharge. Which switch can you recommend?
