Hi there,
I would like to install surveillance cameras in my house but running wires nicely is a problem and I want to avoid wifi. Wondering if this setup would work:
Poe hub/dvr connected to three cameras via cat 6 cable (these are the areas I could easily wire to)
Powerline adapter (hopefully with built in poe injector) to one camera
Cat 6 from hub/dvr to poe switch to three other cameras. or poe switch connected to home network to three other cameras.
Basically wondering if cameras need to be connected directly to poe dvr or if they can connect via network.
Sorry if my terminology is wrong as I am a noob when it comes to surveillance systems. Also, by all means recommend a different method for a hard to wire home.
Thanks,
