An UDM Pro lacks an L3 switch, while my Cisco APs aren’t too keen on Ubiquiti at the moment.

To be truthful, I’d contact a Cisco reseller and discuss your requirements. If you already own Cisco gear, staying with Cisco makes sense. In short, you’d likely need an ASA firewall and an L3 switch equipped with PoE ports.

I considered using the EdgeRouter X, setting up sub-interfaces on it and linking it to your separate switches for cameras and the main network. This approach would work since a L3 switch can also divide the functionality virtually. However, I already have three switches dedicated to each network, and they were connected directly to the router without any sub-interfaces so far.

You might configure a pfSense device with a four-port NIC and build separate networks on each physical connection. This approach lets you maintain the existing switches while reducing costs. Alternatively, a high-capacity 48-port switch could be segmented into three or four VLANs, using a single uplink (trunk) to connect to the router with VLAN tagging.
