Building network for small apartment (alien.top)

submitted 11 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

2 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I want to building small network in my apartment. I don't have space to put rack in my apartment, so I just want stuff with small footprint. For now I would buy:

switch with PoE
WiFi-6E AP

and in the future:

monitoring camera in apartment
doorbell with camera

I thought about getting stuff from Ubiquiti, like:

Enterprise 8 PoE switch
Cloud Key G2 Plus
U6 Enterprise AP
and in future some cameras and their doorbell

Will cloud key allow me to manage AP and allow recording of video from cameras to HDD? Or is there something else on the market?

I use the Unifi doorbell/cameras rather than Ring because I value having the footage stored on my own server rather than having to trust a third party.
