Copper for power over Ethernet is a necessary evil.

What do you use poe for inside the house?, outside I would assume cameras and those could be on a separate switch/network.

I run fiber to an outside poe switch with sfp+ that has a grounded power socket and from there poe, in case of shorted wires due to pests or lightning nothing dies in the house.
