I have now installed a ubiquity lite. With it, I have better quality in the reception area than with my router. An adapter for PoE was included in the delivery!
If the space allows, I would install the 19-inch cabinet right away and use a 16-port switch... you yourself write that 3-5 more will be added and you would have to connect the switches together, creating a bottleneck (even if it's a wide bottleneck with 1Gbit/s...) Who knows what else you want to put in there (e.g. a NAS) and your 10-inch cabinet will quickly reach its limits.
