tmescan 0 Posted May 31, 2014 I have several smaller scale IP cam installs completed but never had a project that would require 2 switches/long distances. They need approx 13 cameras in one section of the complex then another 16 on the opposite side of the building (approx 450 ft). Ive never had to do a multi switch configuration and am under the assumption that I run a cat cable from one switch to the next and thats it to link up all cameras? The cameras will all be 3mp poe. My only concerns are the streaming/quality of using multiple switches and then integrating those into their existing network. Thanks for any input Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
