If high bandwidth is needed between the two switches (e.g., for high data transfer rates or many connected devices), uplink to uplink is often preferred. In this case, we connected uplink to uplink using fiber connections to maximize throughput (10Gbps).
Yes but is the second switch connected to an outlet or is only the first switch conected to an outlet and draws the second switch power from the first via PoE?
In this video, both switches need to be connected to an outlet for power supply. If your second switch requires PoE power, PoE powered switches can help. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at support@fastcabling.com.
That will also work. But some very old models of switches still need to use a crossover cable to connect the sending pin on one end of the cable to the receiving pin on the other end when connecting two common network ports. However, many modern switches support Auto MDI-X, which automatically detects the proper connection type no matter which cable you use. The uplink port does not cross transmit and receive pins, so no crossover cables are required, which means that only one straight-through cable is required to connect two switches by linking the uplink port and the regular port. In addition, uplink ports usually have more bandwidth compared to normal ports as they aggregate traffic between different layers.
I'm not sure if I understand it correctly, but if you want the NVRs to share camera feeds or access each other’s stored video data over a network, you can integrate them through the local area network (LAN). Ensure both NVRs are connected to the same network. This can be done via Ethernet cables connecting each NVR to your network switch or router. Assign static IP addresses to each NVR for easy identification and access. Use the software provided with the NVRs to access and manage cameras connected to both devices. Some NVR systems allow adding another NVR as an external source.
Will this configuration affect efficiency or latency of data transfer? How does it compare if I just use a single PoE switch? I am using unmanaged PoE switch
Each additional switch in a cascaded configuration introduces a slight delay in data transfer. When multiple switches are cascaded, the available bandwidth is shared among all connected devices. If you use our long-range PoE+ extension kit, the data rate between the two switches can be maintained at 500Mbps. By connecting the long-range PoE ports on both switches, you can magically extend the distance up to 500 meters while maintaining a data rate of 500Mbps. www.fastcabling.com/product/500-meters-long-range-poe-extension-kit/
Perfectly explained. Thank you

Uplink Port to Regular Port, or Uplink to Uplink Port, which the best?
If high bandwidth is needed between the two switches (e.g., for high data transfer rates or many connected devices), uplink to uplink is often preferred. In this case, we connected uplink to uplink using fiber connections to maximize throughput (10Gbps).
Does the NVR have to use an online internet network?
No, if you only need to record the videos locally, you don't need a router.

Thank you!
What if i connect a poe port to another PoE port?
That will also work.

How about linking 2 nvr
I'm not sure if I understand it correctly, but if you want the NVRs to share camera feeds or access each other’s stored video data over a network, you can integrate them through the local area network (LAN).
