Hi Guys,
Seek some opinion.
I'm currently designing my home networking for renovation. I'm planning to deploy OMADA in my home network which can manage network devices in 1 interface, setting vlans for different purposes and etc.
I know Ubiquiti have similar solution as OMADA, but i think OMADA cost wise is cheaper than Ubiquiti. Not sure Mikrotik have similar solution or not as not familiar with their product.
My house is double storey terrace house and will be using CAT6A cables and 2 multi mode LC fiber optic between store room to my study room as I will having more devices and some home lab in my study room.
Below is my draft networking diagram.
I'm thinking whether to put a switch in my study room instead of pulling all cables into Store Room in order ease the wiring job.
Planning to get 1Gbps/2Gbps internet in future, wondering between network rack 1 to network rack 2 if I would want to pull a fiber optic, should I use single mode or multi mode fiber optic? Not sure any fiber modem can direct connect with switches with multi mode fiber?

1. router with at least 2x 2.5G ports.
2. instead of 16 ports non PoE switch, maybe a 8 ports 2.5G switch + 8 ports gigabit switch. if you are running nvr for your ip cam, remember plug your nvr to the same PoE switch as well so that router offline nvr continue to record too.
3. ground floor ap that ethernet port maybe put near the kitchen or dining room there if u have plenty of smart home appliances. if you still have tons of IoT devices using wifi b/g/n, spare a ethernet port for old wifi router. wifi 6 router sometimes got weird compatiblity issue with those old devices using wifi b/g/n.
4. for more pleasant wifi usage, i recommend each room has 1 mesh router instead of 1 AP cover the whole floor. wifi is 2-way communication, your AP signal is strong but your handphone send back signal not as strong, you will feel "lag".
5. yea, put another 2.5G switch for study room and entertainment room is better than having 4 lan cables, 2 lan cables are enough.
extra tip for new reno: don't forget to plan make a box with cctv monitoring to receive parcel when you are not around.
