A convenient option is using Power-over-Ethernet-enabled (PoE-enabled) cameras. This reduces the amount of cables to a single Ethernet cable. If you choose this option, make sure that your network switch is capable of providing PoE. The Foscam FI9900EP camera and Netgear GS305P both satisfy the conditions above.
