This system cannot be used with a PoE switch as it does not support PoE. This is the so-called "xpoe" (whatever that means). I have a rear camera with three cameras and a front camera right in the foreground. If I could use the switch to connect three cameras and an ethernet cable from the switch to the DVR, that would be a clean install. Instead, I need three long ethernet cables to connect to the back panel. Much less discreet. The cameras seem to be strong. The system seems to be quite fast. I just don't like that it's not real PoE and the title says "Easy PoE setup". If I knew XPOE != POE, I would _never_ order this product. UPDATE: I installed this camera system in a different location than originally planned instead of repackaging everything and sending Revain back. Here are some more thoughts after using it for a while. Pros and Cons: β’ It's great to be able to access it over the web without paying a subscription. The mobile app works flawlessly. β’ Mobile app is fine. Playback is lame. Some menus don't work or give an error. There are some errors in "hd/sd" video settings. The application is poorly translated into English, for example, it asks for a "mailbox" for mail. β’ I installed a larger hard drive. It seems to initialize fine. I had no problems with the installation. β’ I like the camera bodies and the way their installation works. They feel very durable and I like the foam pads on the bottom for weather protection. β’ I haven't had any problems with my own Ethernet cables. in the browser). Looks like a flash is required to view the video from the cameras. There doesn't seem to be any other functionality in the web app. β’ The cameras are displayed on the screen based on their physical position of the connectors on the NVR. There doesn't seem to be a way to change this virtually. β’ The motion detection does not work properly. The night light attracts bugs that trigger motion settings. They're small, but the software doesn't make a difference. β’ I installed my own Ethernet cables because the ones that came with them weren't weatherproof or were too short. I will continue the update later.
