Innuos PhoenixNet connectivity to ND555

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about connecting the Innuos PhoenixNet to the ND555. First off I have a 5m Chord Signature network cable and it is directly connected to the ND555 stream but somewhat goes across the room because of it's length from the router. I also have a computer switch and was wondering if it was a good idea to connect the Signature cable to the computer switch, which uses regular cat6 cable and I have length on that, and then connect the PhoenixNet to the Signature and then from the PhoenixNet Chord Music to the ND555?

Also I was wondering if it was a good thing to put the PhoenixNet on a standing desk that moves up and down? Again it is more about cable length and proximity. My stereo setup is for the home office with new fields (Harbeth P3EXR 3D) as opposed to being in a listening room. I heard that the PhoenixNet needs to settle for a week from transport movement to be at its best but would the movement of the stand up/sit down office desk degrade the audio SQ?

Thanks in advance for your comments!
