Thank you both! Does that mean you would tell the electrician that a keystone with little to no cable should be coming out of the ceiling, to which I connect with a patch cable?

No, not from the ceiling.
It should be a keystone in the box.

So that means I specify a flush-mounted empty conduit box in the filigree ceiling for our general contractor, and the electrician pulls the network cable through a conduit there? What kind of box should I inform the general contractor to install? It should certainly be (significantly) smaller in diameter than the mounting plate of the access point, right?

The picture in post #58 shows it quite well. But choose a deep flush-mounted box.

Which access point should it be? For almost all of them, there are installation instructions where the drilling templates can also be seen. There, you can often also find the size of the mounting plate.

Thank you, then I will share this request with our site manager tomorrow: Deep flush-mounted box, at the spot where the electrician is supposed to pull the network cable later. Unfortunately, the basement ceiling is already installed. I will ask if at least a bit of concrete can be chiseled away around the empty conduit so that the keystone module can be hidden there. It's somehow a pity that Unifi doesn't offer taller spacing rings for this case. My gut feeling tells me that it will be either NanoHDs or the 6 Lites. I haven't read up on that yet. So far, my approach has been: What is network? -> Can I do it myself? -> Where do I need it? -> What needs to be discussed with the electrician? -> Components? The request to the site manager is fine like this, right? How would you deal with the network cable from the ceiling, which already doesn't have a flush-mounted box?

I don’t understand why you are mentioning this now in a different thread:


… but you obviously still do not understand:
You don’t need two cables (installation cable and patch cable in parallel) in the empty conduit to your access point on the ceiling, but only the installation cable in the empty conduit, and only from the keystone in the box onward follows a patch cable pigtail on the further route!!!

So finally get yourself a professional – and that is NOT an explosives expert for the concrete ceiling, but a network installer.
