How to distribute fiber for computer and TV?

Nonin -  
 Nonin -
Hello,
my problem lies in the distribution of cables: I would like to bring fiber to three rooms via RJ45 cables for TV and computer. I wanted to run 2 cables per room, one for the TV and one for the computer, but my fiber entry point is very far from the electrical panel. Can you help me with the wiring diagram?
Is one box sufficient or not? And what equipment should I use to distribute so many cables?

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 100.0.4896.75

    Hi,
    I didn't quite understand,
    do you already have RJ45 sockets or not?
    a patch panel or not?
    an 8-port switch in the communication/patching cabinet should be enough.
    Is your box in your living room?
    the idea is to do something like this:

      Thank you for your response. In fact, it's an apartment that I'm completely renovating. The electrical panel will be in the entrance, but the fiber connection comes in at the other end of the apartment in the living room, and I want to use the fiber for the 4 TVs and 3 computers, all wired.
      Is that possible? I don't know anything about fiber. I have the option to run RJ45 in all the rooms.

        Afterwards,
        if the TVs are all connected via ethernet (through an IPTV box or not) and not at all through the antenna, it may be that only one RJ45 socket per room is possible. By attaching a small 5-port switch behind, it could be cheaper than 2 sockets / 2 cables per room, but 2 RJ45 sockets may still be useful one day.
        Also,
        it depends on your box model, but if the ONT is external (which is tending to disappear, especially with Orange), you can place the box in the communication cabinet.
        The fiber stops at your fiber socket, rather at the ONT, whether integrated into the box or not, the rest is RJ45 cabling, which you seem to know.
