Hello,
So I had a couple of question I'm trying to figure out before I set expectations/prices with the builder/electrician/networking folks. Keep in mind this is all new construction so It all can be arranged far ahead of sheetrock being installed.
I checked and ATT Fiber is available in the area. My understanding is that the Fiber will run to the house where it will end at the ONT either on the exterior wall or directly inside. Between the ONT and the patch panel (https://www.legrand.us/structured-wiring/enclosures.aspx), who handles the wiring (presumably CATX) between those two points, ATT or my installer?
I notice most houses have the ONT in the garage, is that a necessary or can ATT run it, say into an adjacent room, like a laundry room that has an exterior wall? I've heard the ONT cannot be far away from the Pace/2Wire 'modem' they supply. Not sure if that's true or not.
Any particular reason why the patch panel box should/should not be in the garage, perhaps adjacent to the ONT?
Thanks all!
