Time to update to a combined POE/Switch,

I have 7 cameras presently running thru a seperate POE and a Switch into a dedicated intel PC system(see Below) . I want to increase to 2 more cameras for a total of 9.
Since I don't have any cable room on the present hardware, I searched around and the Netgear GS316PP looked to be a decent upgrade with the POE & Switch combined and @ 183w.
I was concerned about having enough power in a new POE/Switch box to run additional cameras.
Does anyone have anything suggestions before pulling the trigger on this new Netgear part?

Do or did you actually have the switch with all the cam streams and the PC with VMS both plugged into your router?
I'd plug the PC into the switch.

I have no experience with that switch, but I am sure others do.

I am running two of these IPCamPower 24 port POE+ 250w switches and have had no issues. They also offer a 16 port with 200w budget.

That particular one you run is only rated 10/100 POE Rated Ports. The Netgear is 10/100/1000. I run a cable ISP with 473.5Mbps

I can see that but you have been moving things around, you said, so.....
I'd still plug the VMS PC into the POE switch, not the router....if it were me.:cool:
