Networking, modem router, switch

[deaz2033]

This is a general question about networking 

 

Should your modem router be super close to your switch to get the best connection. My new house has phone lines in limited and strange places and my wifi moden router and the layout of the house walls so the wifi router needs to be in a more open area the switch i have i need to route quite a few ENET cables from it so it can be hidden away some where so i guess my question is, is it ok to have my switch a reasonable amout away from the wifi modem router i am going to use cat6a cables will doing this affect the speed any any way causing a huge drop in speed

There will be no speed drop so long as the runs are less than 100m (~320 feet)

[Kazetana]

Not really, unless you're going to be routing your CAT6a further than 100m.

[RollTime]

Nope. Ethernet cables work with no performance loss up to 100m. Anything over that will need repeaters.

Ok yea at max it will be 20m cable to the switch and at max a 30m cable from the switch 

 

Thanks for your help just wanted to make sure
