You are already using 15 ports. Just get a 24-port switch.
The most sensible option is to lead the LAN installation cables directly into the network cabinet. There, terminate them on a patch panel and connect to the switch using patch cables.
If you don’t want to do that, you could mount keystone modules on the installation cables and connect directly to the switch with patch cables.
Only power, fiber optic, and one LAN cable to the switch go into the Fritz!Box.
Fritz!Box 7590 is the wrong box because there is no fiber optic connection! You need the 5530 Fiber or the smaller model. Both work for your purpose.
I would also take a PoE switch.
Regarding APs. Sure, you also have Wi-Fi 3 meters away. But if there is a wall or similar in between, you don’t get fast 5GHz Wi-Fi but slower 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. For normal use, that is still sufficient.
The access point you mentioned fits. Or a slightly cheaper option I suggest.
I would do LAN in the garage and garden right away. Especially if it’s not plastered yet, etc.
And then you’ll already need a 24-port switch ;). We’re not even talking about cameras and such.
