Hello everyone, I’m about to deploy around 254 PoE cameras for 3 buildings.
Also, instead of running cables from the server room switch to the 19 workstations, can I connect the workstations directly to the switches in each building (since the workstations are spread across the buildings) to reduce the need for fiber cabling to the server? The 2 photos below are the basic parameters of the camera and switch.
Thank you.
- Each building will have its cameras connected to a PoE switch located in that building.
- I will divide the cameras evenly into 2 IP ranges.
- From these switches, the signal will be sent to a 24-port Gigabit switch in the server room, so the entire system can be managed and monitored through the manufacturer’s camera management software.
- On the server software, permissions will be assigned to 19 users at their respective workstations, each allowed to view specific cameras (possibly up to 20 cameras per user).
- The switch in the server room will also connect to the 19 workstations and 4 NVRs.
