Looking for some guidance on a system. Looking for POE + NVR + Doorbell Cam

I want to add 5 cameras. 3 standard cameras, 1 floodlight cam, and 1 doorbell camera. i have the ability to run cat5 so would like to to run POE cameras. Looking for suggestions for good cameras and a good NVR system. Does the NVR have to be hooked up to a monitor at all times?

Also, 2 of the cable runs would be around 100′. would that be within range? i believe 90m is the break point.

price range i am flexible. looking to get good motion detection, HD video, and solid night vision.

as for doorbell cam, i can do a standalone like Nest or Ring, but would love to have it incorporated. i can’t run Cat5 to the doorbell.

Can I reuse this panel from 2004? If so, how can I modernize it and use internet instead of phone connections?

I see a sticker that says “ETL Listed Household Fire and Burglar Warning Control Unit”. There are also several wired Honeywell door contact sensors and motion sensors, as well as a wired Ademco keypad.

I’m just curious how much of this can be reused and how to modernize it. Thanks!
