Any decent electrician is France knows how to install ethernet, and they can get install this kind of equipment, equivalent of a distribution cabinet, instead of the regular "phone line" box:

The blank stare was that I asked for conduit and pull-string everywhere, and they weren't willing to do that. Or to do any variants beyond the standard 2 cables to each place, so my office has 4 ethernet ports (adding another "2 cable jack" was something that they could do) and needs its own switching.
Problem now is that most electricians think that because "it is just low voltage wiring" you do not need to worry about interference and can just run it anywhere.
those are cables and sockets, standardized to the point of beeing a commodity. no magic involved at all.
