PoE switch power budget by camera count and class

The switch power budget each camera count and IEEE 802.3 class actually requires, and why the figure is larger than the cameras own draw.

Port count is on the front of the box and the power budget is buried in the specification, which is why this is the most common mistake in a first install.
