@Mike A. all good points. I've been facing the fact that I've just got to to run Windows to get the BI goodness. I went ahead and bought Acronis licenses (awesome backup software for windows), so I'm committed to the platform.
THANK YOU Mike A. and Broachoski! Much appreciated. I'll use both! I'm reading the PDF now right quick (for those burning questions :-D ) and will print the help files here shortly to get the latest version.
I've searched all day and not found anything that looks like a manual for Blue Iris that I can download.
Please forgive me for posting such a basic question - I've really tried to find a manual but just can't find one.
IS there a Blue Iris manual? If so, where can I find it?
Thanks;

@Pete6 The item I suggested was indeed a tiny POE switch much like the one you are ordering on amazon, the one I suggested comes from Andy's store on Amazon. I'm intrigued by your four-port POE+ switch and I'll look for your evaluation.
@Pete6 clever, and if one fails, you can easily swap it out and restore your range of video. Question for you sir: would this device work with your Amcrest NVR? https://www.amazon.com/Loryta-Extender-Repeater-Ethernet-Splitter/dp/B07RQ569MF
