CX4 connection between several HP switches and RSTP

Hello, my name is Chris and we (the company i work for) are planning to move soon to a new location.

 

 

At the moment we have several HP switches i have to utilize for a proper setup.

 

I am planning to connect those HP Switches through CX4 10 GbE an their back ports:

Now my 2 questions are:

 

1. Is this setup sound as long as i activate RSTP on all HP switches?

2. Do i have to activate RSTP on that singled-out Netgear switch, that will only be connected through fibre-optic and sits in another location ?

 

 

I really appreciate this community and i'd like your opinion about this setup.
