Ethernet switches- POE, 10/100 and gigabit?

I want to install some cameras for security. POE for ease of wiring.

First camera I bought to test is a RLC-410 5 MP, the maximum bitrate is 8192 kbps (8 M)

So I believe I can use a 10/100 switch for power and data to connect 3-4 cameras easily? (8M x 4= 32M, well under 100)

I also believe it is ok to mix 10/100 and gigabit switches without degrading the speed of the network?

Or am I mistaken?
