Looking for some advice on networking hardware.
I'm buying a new house and doing some renovation including rewiring the house. My plan is to run some shielded cat6a at the same time for a gigabit network. I'm thinking I'll need.
Would likely need Poe for the APs but unlikely to need it for anything else. So I don't mind using injectors for a few ports.
I've been eyeing up UBIQUITI networks unifi products and the price adds up quickly. I'm ok to stretch price wise but tbh I just think it will be overkill. My needs are fairly basic, wanted basic network management (DHCP, DNS etc) but with good transfer speeds and seemless WiFi handoffs
I feel like I'm leaning towards ubiquiti just for the wireless APs but then I'd need a software controller?
For reference I was thinking Ubiquiti unifi.
