You're unsure about the best setup for your Unifi Protect system. It sounds like you're considering installing a G3 Flex and an AI 360 camera, both using PoE, and wondering if they need direct cabling back into the network. While it's true that PoE works well, some setups may require physical connections for optimal performance. I’d recommend checking your specific device documentation or consulting with a professional to ensure proper configuration and avoid unnecessary cable runs.

They share the same power source, but connecting Ethernet can cause compatibility or setup problems.

Essentially, you're suggesting only basic G3 Instances, which could be simpler than what you need.

I lack direct access to the roof, so any extended hops will be obvious. I’m unsure how to set up internal Ethernet while keeping the appearance tidy.
