So if I run a pair of AC Locos from the house to the barn, I would still need a wireless access point connected to the AC Loco at the barn right? That way the cameras could connect to it? And would everything still operate off the local network at the house so that I can view the video locally without relying on shitty internet upload speeds?

Do not get wifi cameras. Get a Poe switch. Hardwire the camera to the switch. You can add an access point to the barn if you want to see the cameras out there on your phone or just want internet access out there.

Yes…like mchias1 said, go wired if at all possible and wifi cameras as only last resort option…depending on how many devices you want out there, then best bet would be to plug the distant end PtP device into a switch, then wire other devices to it
