Question about ASUS RT-AX88U Gaming

At my home we currently have the Giga connect box from UPC CABLECOM. I would like to set my UPC router to bridge mode and then connect this Asus router and use it as a terminal device. However, I am currently wondering whether the speed will suffer because I have to connect the asus router to the connect box via a lan cable.

The question here is what speed is meant? In principle, the ASUS connected to the UPC box via LAN should not result in any loss of speed. The UPC 1GB WAN connection hardly provides an effective 1GB and the LAN connection with the right cables provides at least 1GB. Whether the WiFi then really delivers 1GB is again a theoretical matter, as can be read in the relevant technical reports.
