It seems like for a basic setup I need:

- an intel-based PC (can be a minipc, doesn't need a powerful CPU)

- a USB Coral TPU ($60)

- some wired PoE cameras (from $60 each)

My question: what do people typically use to power the cameras? A single PoE switch, or multiple PoE injectors?

My Arlo Pro 2 cameras are apparently EOL and might stop receiving free cloud services in a couple of months. So this seems like a good time to upgrade to higher resolution cameras.

(The Frigate docs advise against using Wi-Fi cameras, which would otherwise be my preference.)
