I think this is ok to join 3 poe switches with standard cat6 cabling. But i wasn't sure if taking the DVR of the second switch was ok, as i only had 2 uplink ports on switch 1 that is already being used. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    The number of switches you can connect together is considerably higher than three!
    Each interconnecting cable should be less than 100 metres (328 feet) long.
