Is 7 feet way from wifi access point (ceiling) to stereo risky for noise?
For my stereo system, I have 2 seperete power lines running to keep no noise in my system. It's important for me to have that black background in the sound.
I want to get a Unifi router system with a wifi access point that mounts in the ceiling. The cieling type gives a donut type of signal through out the house. With the way my house is (kind of like a shoe box), my stereo is in the middle of the house. The wifi access point would also have to go near there... probably like 7 feet away. Is that risky in inducing noise into my stereo system?
Minimum 3ft between wifi router and components and cables. I use EERO 6e Pro mesh network and it’s excellent. You can use a high quality switch to help you place the router further away for components Also - do not use same circuit for your system and network components the switch mode power supplies used with routers a d switches will pollute your AC line

Thanks... I work in IT and all the engineers recommend unifi. It's what we use in our offices to. It's on a prosumer level for home users also. This is the access point I would have on my ceiliing. Pair it with one of their gateway routers which give superior performance. No more random rejections.

I forgot to add I use a linear power supply (5 volt LPS) to power the EERO Mesh node near my stereo which is connected with an ethernet cable. In fact, I use multiple LPS to power all my 5 volt stereo components. All my stereo components & EERO mesh node are on the same AC circuit all going through the same Shunyata MPC-12 power conditioner. |
@dman777 I installed a Unifi gateway router with a UAP-HD-AC access point in the hall ceiling outside my listening room. It worked very well until my audio ocd kicked in and I ran ethernet from the switch by the router to the room. The Unifi system has worked very well in my house, though the access point is probably a little long in the tooth as far as IT progress has moved. I have always run the Access point with POE from my Unifi switch that resides next to the Gateway router. I also have another switch present on my rack. I see no issues with the access point being 7 feet from your system. |
