    Looks great, good job... Two thoughts i had for you to consider.
    You really should use a DAC cable between the UDM-SE and the 24 port switch, additionally, you should use a patch panel in your Unifi rack to clean up the wires.

    Hey Peter, as an ex network installer, now filmmaker, I am very impressed with your "basic" network and I mean it is really cool stuff you have there, really like your CCTV system and man o man the quality of those cameras, all the best with your new setup, I can see a man happy with the "toys" he got. Great video, great shots. As always, may you have a great day all the way from South Africa in Nelspruit.

    You can’t Go Wrong with Ubiquiti! The Dream Machine is a powerhouse, unifi has one of the best user interfaces in networking. I’m putting a second U6 pro for the Sensors and the flood lights are awesome little extras too.
    My install to do list so far is the 24 poe switch, NVR, Poe doorbell, x2 AI pro, x1 Ai 360, x 3 flood lights, x10 G5 bullets, x2 G5 dome, x3 flex switches and some fiber optic cables. Sadly I have an old house and I have to run most of the wires outside due to asbestos, so Spray painting gray conduit.

    Awesome job, man I'm feeling spoiled having fiber with flawless 1000 gb down and up with like 2 units totall 😅 but then again I don't run a studio like yours of course, just mind blowing how many places still in 2023 that is dependent on 4g and things like that. Back in my youth a Internet with like 10 up and 5 down you're was the king, took ages though getting anything done when compared today.

    Getting Cell Phone Network internet access in my studio was actually cheaper than having fiber installed, and faster than the non-fiber alternative, 5g giving me about 50mbit up and down, and with the 150mbit up/down at home with fiber for larger stuff it works out pretty well :) Compared to this setup though … I have like a router that handles wifi as well, and 1 cable from the router to the nas, in a 300 square feet open space and a webcam from 2002 as a security cam connected to a pc in an arcade cabinet taking a picture every 10 seconds …

    Hi Peter,
    Love your videos and learning a lot from you to improve my own journey. Could you please share the make and model for your camera?
    I have the Canon SL3 but I can only use it in 1080p.. if I do 4k, it would crop the screen and I'd be invading personal space of my viewers.. I have a Go Pro 10, but I'd like to maintain depth of view in my videos.
    Thank you.

    Nice! A couple tips would be to connect your NVR to your switch with a 10G DAC cable instead of the 1G Ethernet cable. Since you have the Pro switch, it has 2 10G SFP+ ports. You can use the other SFP+ port to link up to your UDM SE at 10G to prepare for faster fiber internet.

I am finding this VERY Complicated to open 4 apps to open my studio... and I can't justify spending 400$ per Philps Hue LED Floor Stand Lights, and all the rest in Philips hue... this is not with changing all the lights I already have to get them replace by Philipe hue... any help would b greatly appreciated!

    Very nice setup, I can recommend testing the G4 Instant w/WIFI as these are surpricingly good for their size and wifi connectivity. Just need to have a powersource and some wifi coverage and they will be able to record just like the PoE cams. I have 14 cams in total, all being a mix of G4 and G5 models so I can easily recommend my customers which ones to get ;)
