With that many circuits, the Netgear switch is probably what you need. Most audio switches have fewer ports, I think 8 is most I've seen, mine has 4.
if you feel you want the isolation of an audio switch, you can put it at your music room.

Ethernet Switch
Hey All: Just moved into new construction and got internet service hooked up today. I have the signal in the utility room connected to a wireless router temporarily. I have 8 Ethernet jacks positioned around the house with several in my new dedicated room so I can stream hardwired rather than over the WiFi.
I am looking at a 16 port gigabit switch from NETGEAR to send the signal out to to various rooms but am wondering if there are better quality switches I should be considering and, if so, what I should be looking into. I don’t want a data bottleneck at the switch but also don’t want to spend more than necessary to get the job done.
Any thoughts are welcome.
