The TAE socket is connected directly to the router. This can also happen along the path TAE-RJ45-RJ45-FritzBox. However, if the FritzBox is not in the basement but in a living room, then both LAN sockets are occupied (1x input from TAE, 1x output back to the basement to the patch panel and switch). So if it is clear where the router will go, there should be one more socket there.
Otherwise, just add a switch to the patch panel and you're done.
okay thanks! There are two possible locations for the router, but we don't need an additional LAN port at either. Then we can manage without a switch and do it as I described, right?
Or does the router have to be placed before the patch panel because you said the router has to be connected directly to the TAE socket?
