Any recommendations for surge protection for IP cams and components?
-STP cable compatible, shield drain
-10-100 minimum, gigabit capable would be better
-stud or connection for a ground lead (#10CU) to a ground rod or suitable ground source

I am looking for something between the switch and camera(s). Lightning season is quickly approaching!

Ended up ordering two Ubiquiti ETH-SP units, Good solid name/rep, and they require STP cable for their gear so should work well enough. Already have one of these on my wireless AP and have had no issues with it.

Electrical code here requires surge suppression before conductor entry into a residence, so hence the requirement.

Even if it's only low voltage power like POE?
