Hard wire via ethernet.
Buy a quality switch with enough ports.
Ie :
Drill a hole and be done with it.
Use 2 cables
one from the router to the switch
second keep dead with one end at the router the other end at the switch.

I'm in the process of constructing a room for the rigs. I'm going to end up with two shelves, each handling 15 rigs. Each rig will handle up to 6 or 7 GPUs depending on GPU power needs.
My main internet router is on the 1st floor. I don't want to drill holes to get to this "server room" in the basement hence I will be using PowerLine kit such as this:

Originally, I was going to get another satellite for my Netgear Orbi router system in the server room then split from there, but some people from this forum have told me that PowerLine would be more reliable than WiFi. Orbi has been super-reliable for me though.
This is my router system, if that matters:

From there, I'm going to use the two ethernet connectors present in the PowerLine adapter into two of these switches, one on each shelf:

Don't worry about the ventilation - that's all properly covered with very high CFM fans + proper air movement over the components. No air conditioning involved here.
I'm absolutely not an expert in the networking field, hence seeking for some advices before plunging into this. Does anyone see any issues with this approach?
Your feedback is much appreciated!
