Data loss when connecting optical converter to router?
We are currently installing fiber optic cables in our single-family homes. The fiber optic cable is routed via the building's access point to the optical converter. From there, the connection to the router is established via Ethernet patch cable. There are two options: 1. Optical converter directly next to the building's access point and then a long (approx. 20 meters) Ethernet patch cable to the router. 2. Optical converter near the router with a short Ethernet patch cable. The question now is how much of a loss in transmission speed there is with option 1 compared to option 2. I would be interested in hearing from experts on this.

Can you neglect, 20 meters are nothing at 1GBase-T, from 100 meters it becomes problematic.
No one. You win something more if you can place the router centrally in the house to better distribute the WLAN.
Devices to use the high speed (PC eg) should still be better connected to the router via Lan cable.
With such a short distance virtually not measurable.
Decide where it comes from other criteria. WiFi transmission site was called, that's a factor.
