Use Belden better than Dintek.

I can only say once you try it you will never look at the consumer grade network gear anymore... The only decision point is the price, haha.

iPhone users might not feel much difference because the iOS is doing very well in roaming between AP, but the experience is definitely different for cheap Android phone...

I tried the Asus Lyra which is considered one of the best for consumer networking category, iPhone is doing good but for the Xiaomi phone, sometimes you can notice the wifi drop for a few seconds before it gets connected to the next AP. I don't entirely blame the network gear but the Android phone also does not scan and roam proactively. However, when the same phone is used for ubiquiti system, even Android phone like this also can be 'handed over' seamlessly just like iPhone, with no disconnection of course.

I can only say Enterprise grade has reasons why it is a category for itself.
Whether to use it for home, I guess it depends on your expectation and whether you can accept small little compromises like those mentioned above...

Y the heck u guys need so much LAN port at home for? 2 LAN per room?? LAN port in the corridor???

What home consumer devices has LAN port anymore?? business laptop, desktop and media server

Desktop computer, network printer, smart TV, tv box/decoder, Xbox or playstation, soundbar, NAS, CCTV or even additional expansion of wifi AP. So why not?
And what if the default port is dead? The second port is always good as a backup.

Desktop and media sever still have LAN ports and can be added/upgraded via PCI-E if necessary, media server/NAS will always use an ethernet connection not wifi for performance and reliability reasons....

want their home to be nurturing ground for esports for their kids

It is preferable to have LAN ports for wired connections, as it is much better than wireless connections.

How about this cat6 utp cable?

https://www.dintek.com.tw/index.php/powerma...-pvc-cable.html

their description said "Cable has been tested over 500Mhz and has shown performance testing results allowing 10Gbit Ethernet transmission up to a length of 70mtrs"

So it can run up to 10Gb in 70meter?
