3x sockets, 2xSat, 1xLAN. I'm going to put a power strip in the lowboard anyway, otherwise I have to crawl behind it every time.

Respect - I haven't thought of the idea yet - to switch the sockets behind the TV with a switch - that would definitely be nicer than my power strip You should have told me that 4 years ago.

It just needs to be activated - so far it has been handled very negligently.

2x Sat (Twin receiver in the TV) 2x LAN (TV + Blu-ray) 4x power (TV, Blu-ray player, phone charging station, possibly eventually for a soundbar) We use the TV for watching and listening to the radio. If there should ever be a console for the children, the phone will just be moved somewhere else. I like it tidy and with minimal cabling, therefore a rather minimalist setup. The outlets are positioned a bit higher directly in the back panel of the hanging lowboard, so that no cables are visible.

We have a socket that can be switched off by a light switch and is used for watching TV. All devices that need to be on for watching TV (TV, receiver, etc.) are connected to a multi-socket power strip, which is plugged into this switchable socket. So in the evening, there is no standby mode anymore.
Additionally, we have 4 more real sockets, of which 3? are currently not in use. A lamp is plugged into one.
Whether each game console needs its own socket should be questioned (I would question the number of game consoles in general).
And also whether 1 or 2 LAN sockets, 0 or 2 speakers... whoever likes to plan everything as a reserve is simply planning twice.
