An open-plan flat needs a PoE CCTV kit layout that covers shared sightlines without overbuying for unused corners.
An open-plan flat CCTV setup needs defined coverage, resident consent, secure accounts and equipment suited to the indoor environment. No verified PoE CCTV kit appears in the factpacks. The TP-Link Tapo C212 at R451 gives a confirmed indoor Wi-Fi camera alternative for one room.
The Tapo C212 at R451 provides verified indoor pan-and-tilt monitoring. It carries no PoE or outdoor claim and should avoid private sleeping areas.

The Seagate SkyHawk 2TB hard drive at R1,340 gives verified surveillance storage for a compatible NVR sourced separately.
Check lease or body-corporate rules, notify residents and avoid filming common property beyond the flat. Secure recordings and restrict viewer accounts.
