Currently my NVR is connected directly to one TV and wirelessly to my Apple computer with SmartPSS. Would like to add it to all the household TVs. My current modem router setup feeds two switches. One switch is POE and feeds the cameras. The other switch feeds all the Cat6 lines.

Can I just conect the NVR directly to either one of the switches? What else would need to be done?
 
Insure the NVR's LAN is on the same subnet as the wireless that feeds the Apple; that should be the same subnet as the router's LAN.
IOW, if the router's LAN is 192.168.1.1, then the NVR's LAN should be 192.168.1.XXX and the WLAN that feeds the Apple wirelessly is likely 192.168.1.YYY.

I'd assign the NVR's LAN a unique, static IP that is outside of the router's DHCP pool.
