Why? Unless you live in a HUGE house, you can do 10GE over copper
to all rooms. Copper is infinately easier to run and terminate.
I dunno about you, but 10GE is both out of my price range, and
useless given the speed of my NAS disks, Comcast cable modem, and
WiFI box. GigE, switched, is quite nice and affordable.
Now, if you have to run to another building on the property (even
just a detached garage) fiber is the way to go due to ground loops,
but that's a slightly different story...
