Thanks to everyone for such illuminating responses. Now that I know that plenum cable is not required for my project, I will wait for a 500' roll of Cat6 cable. Looking at local Craigslist from time to time as well.
In the meantime, the cameras have been rolling in, PoE switches acquired, Dell Optiplex 9020M with 16GB RAM and SSD acquired, BlueIris and remote installed and readied, VPN installed and LOTS of time figuring out optimal locations, lighting, configurationss and motion settings.
Thanks again.
