Hello to all. I have been installing hikvision for a few years now.
But i have chance to get good price on ubiquiti hardware.

Current project(site distance is about 50m)
Site a: existing isp and router. Have to add nvr,poe switch for ap and c1
Site b: poe switch to ap and c2

For cameras looking for 2x g4 or g6 bullet/dome
For ap (p2p) 2x nanostatuon loco m2
For switch 2x some nice 4port poe
For nvr. Here is dillema. Use uck g2? Upgrade it to 2tb ssd. Read a lot of unit overheating.

Any suggestions?
 
I'm not familiar with Ubiquiti NVR's and IP cameras but have done a dozen or more Nanostation and Loco radio installs for Layer 2 Transparent bridges.

Unless the LOS between these 2 sites (about 50m apart) is slightly obstructed with vegetation, I would consider the m5 (5GHz) radios instead of the m2 (2.4GHz) especially if a site survey shows the 2.4 is very noisy and crowded. However, I'm also unfamiliar with the RF bands produced by Ubiquiti for use in Europe.

Also, be aware that the Nanostations and Locos use a 24VDC passive POE injector which is not compatible with POE switches that are 802.3af/at compliant.

Ubiquiti offers an outdoor-rated, POE adapter for those radios; it accepts 802.3af/at input and produces a 24VDC @ .5A passive output ==>> Ubiquiti INS-3AF-O-G

LOS is free of any obstacle. Poe adapter comes with pack i think.
Other option is airMAX LiteBeam 5AC. I get them for about the same price
