Helping designing network for Synology NAS and 2 x Hikvision

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I'm at a bit of a loose end trying to work out exactly what I require to complete my install. I have two Hikvision cameras that I'm going to mount on the soffits and then route cables into the loft space where my Synology NAS will be sitting. I'd bought two POE injectors but I have only just realised that my NAS only has one ethernet port, so am I right in thinking I will need to do the following:

 

Mains ethernet plug plugged into router in hallway

Mains ethernet plug plugged into ethernet switch in loft space

NAS plugged into ethernet switch in loft space

2 x Cameras plugged into POE ports on ethernet switch loft space.

 

Lastly, if I want to connect a camera at a more remote location without using wifi, can I just buy another mains ethernet adaptor and plug it into that to get it to communicate with the NAS?

 

Thanks!
