Follow up question. I'm shopping for a PoE injector and apparently voltages are a thing? I'm looking at this: link here From what I understand, it's an active injector so I won't have to worry about burning out my Lorex cameras (12V; link here)? I'm using Lorex because besides me, there will...

It is definitely appealing. $30 for each vs. the $99 for the Ubiquiti is much more economical ($30x8 cameras = $240 vs. $99x8 cameras = $792). I'll most likely do a mixture of both.

You are correct. I still want the existing Cat6 line to act as normal (gigabit for computers), but then have the PoE+data going off to the camera. Basically, I'm mounting the camera on the exterior of the house and finding the nearest ethernet cable to tap in to so I can send the data back to...

Oh boy. I wonder if I'm in over my head? I would like to have gigabit to the ethernet, but the problem is I don't have any power near by at the end for the switch.

This is definitely a clean hidden solution. In the diagrams it shows only PoE devices being daisy chained. But the specifications do state that it's 802.3af compliant, meaning any non-PoE device should not receive power correct?

I'll definitely look in to this! The extra WiFi functionality would actually solve my secondary issue that I was going to tackle another way. Are there issues with having too many of these around the house? I'm going to be installing 8 cameras.

First post. I hope I'm in the right place. I'm attempting to wire PoE cameras for my whole house and have hit a snag as far as the layout. I've done what research I could and I've ended up going in circles and getting confused. The building has existing Cat6 runs going to wall jacks. I have...
