Audio skipping

[s3ng]

Was wondering why my audio might be skipping every few seconds on recordings. The camera is
EmpireTech IPC-HDW5231R-ZE
I also have a Loryta IPC-B5442E-ZE 4MP (flickers occasionally) and Loryta IPC-T2347G-LU 4MP connected
Switch is
Aumox 5 Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE Switch, 4 Port PoE 58W, Unmanaged

Computer is a
HP EliteDesk 800 G2 USFF Desktop PC i7 6700 3.40Ghz 8Gb 256Gb nVMe SSD Win10 Pro

I didn't have the screen connected so I'm not sure if it was a cpu usage issue or not. I'm using direct to disk recording at the highest possible settings.

Do you have an SD card in the camera? I was having same issues and reformatted and it went away. For good measure I then also turned off substream and anything else not needed.

post a clip of the skipping...noise reduction can have this type of affect on the audio. Try disabling it in the camera.

No, nothing in the camera.

Ok I'll see if I can figure that out, can I upload it on here?

Basically like this the whole time.

That's exported but the original file is also like that

Did you disable the noise reduction in audio settings of the cam as @fenderman suggested?
If so, then I'd suggest it is a network problem.
Bad switch.
Bad cabling.
Bad crimps on the cable
Used CCA instead of Solid Copper Cable.
Didn't use the 568B standard when crimping connections.

I'll check that out.
