So I am in the process of a new installation at my house. I will be adding 6 cameras to one side of my house and all cat5e cables will run up into the attic. Right now I am at a stalemate until I get some good advice on what to do.
Do I run 6 separate cat5e cables up into my attic (about 100 ft runs each to the NVR) or do I run just one and connect all cameras using a poe switch?
I live in Ohio so (like all attics) they get very very hot in the summer months. Is it a bad idea to put a switch in the attic? Should I just run 5 more cables and call it that?
Your advice on what I should do is appreciated.
