We are building a new home and now is the time to run CAT5/6 for IP cameras I have planned. The system can support more than 4 cameras, but that's what I'm think of starting with for now.
I've marked the areas I'm thinking in red. The house has a courtyard where the pool is. I'd like a camera on the pool, the driveway, the back of the house, and the front east corner. I know there are some blind spots, I'm not looking for 100% coverage. But this will get most of everything coming and going.

Since it is a new build, I would run wiring to every corner (including inside corners) and just put a cover plate on the ones you aren't using. Small cost up front, but tons of flexibility. Make sure the CAT cables are clearly labelled at the switch side of things.
