Network Architecture
A simple 10Gbit/s fiber architecture built around MikroTik routing and Ubiquiti switching. The three switches are connected in a daisy chain via SFP+ fiber, carrying VLAN 10, 20 and 30 across the complete backbone.
Internet & Routing
The 10Gbit/s Init7 Fiber7 connection terminates directly on the MikroTik CCR2004. The router handles routing, firewalling and dual-stack IPv4 / IPv6 connectivity. the magic stuff happens here...

10G Daisy Chain
Three Ubiquiti USW-Pro-XG-8-PoE switches form the switching backbone. Each switch is linked to the next using a 10Gbit/s SFP+ fiber connection. VLANS are created on Ubiquiti and propagated to all switches. All switches support PoE, powering devices throughout the home.

VLAN Trunk
All inter-switch fiber links operate as 802.1Q trunks. VLAN 10, 20 and 30 are therefore available on every switch throughout the network.
VLAN 20 — IoT
VLAN 30 — Management

Available on all switches
Notes
This architecture was designed with simplicity, performance and reliability in mind. The complete backbone runs at 10Gbit/s and uses SFP+ fiber connections between the router and all switches. Although I know that daisy-chaining stuff isn't probably the nicest idea (for various reasons!), I kept it that way, because my cabling design at home is based on this daisy chained design.
