Can you confirm if the following network configuration is acceptable with a goal to have all wired and wireless devices on the same network? If so, please also recommend a switch I should purchase for this configuration. Thanks!

This is acceptable configuration. Assuming it is Ethernet link between Deco4 and Deco5, this configuration should be fine for any Deco model.
The topic of compatible switches discussed here: General questions about Ethernet Backhaul feature on your Deco
If you want short summary: TP-Link unmanaged switch should be your choice.

@decoinRI @alexandre
Thanks for the response! I will purchase this switch: https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/8-port-switch/tl-sg108/
Yes, wired ethernet between deco4 and deco5. And If i understand correctly because these are all wired together I should expect the same speeds at deco4 and deco5 (and the devices connected to the switch from deco5) as I have at deco1; is that right?

I configured as displayed, however when I connect my master UeeVii CPE-453 wirelsss bridge to the switch (as opposed to directly to the WAN of my modem as it was previously) the deco (not pictured) that I have connected to the slave UeeVii CPE-453 wirelsss bridge and configured as a seperate network is no longer is working.
Please advise.

@decoinRI I understand you have another deco, configured as a main deco, let us call it deco6, connected via the wifi bridge to deco5.
Do you have the possibility, just to test, to connect it via a cable to deco5?
How are your two deco networks, deco1 and deco6, configured? In router mode, in AP mode?
Is there a reason not to include deco6 in the deco1 network?

Unfortunately it is too far to run a cable. See configuration image.
all deco's are in router mode
there are different users so i would like to have them isolated on distinct networks.
