Ethernet Wiring


I prefer to use a hard connection as opposed to using Wi-Fi. Our basement is finished off, so my only access point requires me to run the Ethernet cable through approximately 25' of HVAC ducts. Is this okay? The cable would be inserted into the duct about 15' away from the furnace plenum. Thank you.

@cleeds Curious why would you think this? 

Properly designed AP filters and switchers, IE. Sonore Optical Module Deluxe, UTA EtherREGEN, Edisoncreation Silent Switch, Sotm, Network Aucoustics ect all are shielded to reduce EMI and RF emissions. I have also used additional shielding internally to my Zenith using Faraday tape.  

That’s the best reason to keep them as physically separated as possible from the rest of the system, imo.
