Just looking for any suggestions for a 4 port poe switch. Here's the catch: is going to be in my unfinished garage which gets pretty cold in the winter and pretty warm/humid in the summer.
Basically, the way my house is laid out, the only way to run cable to my garage is through a small diameter conduit that runs through the foundation and pops out into the garage. There is only room for one cat6 cable so a switch in the garage is my best bet. I've considered other ways but it would be a TON of work.

That's perfect! Saves me from running electric too. Just ordered it, thanks for the help nayr
 
Just got it in today and hooked up a few spare cameras up to bench test it. @nayr, what is the process for accessing the cameras in the nvr? I am running a lts8716-p16 and have the switch plugged into one of the poe ports on the nvr. The nvr automatically added the first camera I plugged into the switch but I am not seeing the rest. Any pointers? I considered using sdap but since the cameras are on the nvr's subnet, i didn't think it would work.
I know all of the cameras are powered up and connected per the lights on the switch and the cameras auto switching to ir when I turn the lights off.
 
Never mind!! I came back to my NVR after dinner and found both cameras added. That was easy
