Router Ethernet Cable to Streamer

In my house, the wifi router is 25 feet away from my components. I plan running cat8 underneath the base board as hiding cable above or below room, side walls, exterior cable are not options. Picked a relatively cheap cable to try out first.

Cat 8 Ethernet Cable 30 ft, 26AWG Nylon Braided High Speed Heavy Duty ... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089B2YP77/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_api_glt_fabc_TJA5SW4HNFZ0F14K8WVA

Is it possible to decrease potential electrical noise introduced by the AT&T wifi router with a better router next in the chain? If so, any recommendations? Also, has anyone had success/noticed a discernible difference in SQ by introducing something such as a LAN isolator right before the streaming source? Any constructive feedback or request for additional applicable situational information is welcome. Thanks.

Hi @mitch2 & @ozzy -  Excuse the remedial question to confirm. So Ethernet to TP Link Converter > Fiber > TP Link Converter > smallest run of Ethernet into streamer is what your suggesting? These examples will do?

Hi,

I use TP Link lan to fiber optic converters works flawlessly, and is a massive improvement over running LAN cable. Less interference. The initial cost may be a bit more expensive but it is totally worth.

One thing you can do with the switch’s and the lan converters is to change to standard Power Supply by does IFI power supply.
