Dialog connection protocol

[Dvlt PhD]

My plan would be to connect an Ethernet cable from the modem/router located in a different room, to an Ethernet switch in a different room, where Dialog, and Phantoms would be located. Then, an Ethernet cable from the Dialog to the switch. If I decide to do wired, then I use 2 more Ethernet cables from the Phantoms to the switch, Otherwise, I will stick with 1 Ethernet cable from the Dialog to switch, for WiFi experience.

I would be connecting most likely the Phantoms and Dialog to the same power strip, but not the Ethernet switch,  although the switch will be located in the same room as Phantoms and Dialog.

I read here about filtered mains...unfiltered... I'm not sure what that means.

If I buy a power strip that in the specs mention "EMI/RMI Noise Filtration", or anything with the word "filtering" on it, or if I buy a power strip that says it has around 4000 Joules, because I want to protect expensive Devialet products...

Well, anybody using smart power strips like this

or this

Just to name a couple...

I don't know... is this the same kind of filtered that would prevent me from having a smooth Devialet ride?

Is the recommended thing to do is to connect 2 Phantoms and Dialog into the same power strip extension? Is using a power strip recommended, or against, for the Phantoms/Dialog experience?

Sorry, I don't speak much electrical language.


Thanks.
