Hello all,
I have been investigating home surveillance equipment. I have more or less decided to build my own computer and run ispyconnect or milestone or netcamcenter (or something similar) with my own POE switch. I already have a dedicated gigabit switch so I really only need something that adds POE+ ports. I have looked at the injectors, but think I will be adding 6 or so cameras so getting a complete switch probably makes more sense.
I haven't decided on the cameras yet, but would like to keep PTZ (pan tilt and zoom) cameras as an option so would probably want POE+ availability. I have searched here and found a few "recommedation" threads, but they were old and weren't for POE+.
I expect my budget would be as inexpensively as possible, but don't see myself spending over $400 on this switch. Please let me know if you have suggestions.
Thanks a lot.
