Wiring your house properly with Cat 6 will be way less expensive and compatible with everything. The only reason to use fibre for gigabit would be you have a run that's longer than 100m or you are running in an environment that has a lot of electrical noise. There is no performance advantage to using fibre for gigabit.

Hi All,

I have been thinking about a home project that you guys can help me with: I am thinking about setting up a wired LAN at home to stream HD video, music, etc. to several large screen displays in the house (these displays will each have a mini media PC attached to the HDMI port). The twist here is that I want to connect to these media PCs a using gigabit Ethernet optical fiber (1000BASE-X)... For the Tablets, iPads, Smartphones, and any other wireless devices I will continue to use 802.11n... Any Takers? Any info, suggestions, ideas...and even insults are welcome :-)
