The Zmodo Business Security System provides a full-featured monitoring
solution to cover your entire business space. The business system includes an
NVR for local storage, HD cameras with cloud storage options, and sPoE
Repeaters to connect the cameras. The sPoE repeater allows you to run one
cable from your router to power on multiple cameras in each zone of your
business. It will also allow for longer cable runs from your NVR.
Network Requirements:
720p cameras: Requires at least 1mbps upload when live viewing or 2mbps
upload when using the Cloud Service for each camera.
1080p cameras: Requires at least 2mbps upload when live viewing or 4mbps

In order to optimize bandwidth and the number of ports on your WiFi router,
you may use a network switch, however your sPoE Repeater(s) and NVR must
be connected to the same network.
