Hey there,
As for the doorbells, you need to decide which one you'd want based on your needs, I'm personally waiting for the G6 (standard), I kinda like it more than the g4
Secondly, you'd need to run a cable like the cat 6a with rj45 termination at both ends for both the chime and the doorbell, as the cameras and chimes both have the only option to be powered by a single poe cable...
You can have as many chimes as you want, you can also use the new poe siren as the doorbell chime (though it haven't done that as I don't have that yet)
Now about the doorbell, you can have them in either of the 2x topologies;
Option 1(with UNVR): Internet > Router / Firewall > PoE Switch, the following to the switch:
> Doorbell (PoE)
> UNVR (Protect Controller + Storage)
Option 2 (recommended): > Internet > Router > PoE Switch, the following all to the switch:
> Doorbell (PoE)
> Cloud Key Gen2 Plus (Protect)
> chime
You'd need a separate controller and a router which i hope you'd already have to make the doorbell work. The cloud key stores the footage from the doorbell and makes it work...
Hope I was helpful...
Probably going Lite then Standard. The pro model with the screen is over 8 1/2" tall which is a little on the large side for a house. Although I usually tend to go for the better spec'd versions I may hold back on this one just because of the size.
I also have another 4k camera that covers the entry way so the drop in quality shouldn't be a big deal really. Anything is better than the Nest Doorbell I had that I wouldn't count as HD at all.

So I’ve actually gone the opposite direction. Went back from a G4 Pro to a traditional doorbell and a G6 Instant. My wife preferred the old chime and button to it being all in one.
G6 Entry Standard, just know you’ll also need a Ubiquiti router that supports Protect or one of their NVRs. I’ve had a G4 Pro doorbell for a few years and it’s been rock solid. Makes me not want to upgrade, it’s that good.
Totally worth the investment. Next you’ll need some new switches and access points. Welcome
I just switched from the Reolink POE to the Ubiquiti G6 Entry to get the package cam. I have it integrated in BI, Scrypted, and running Protect. Works well tied into Homekit to show up on Apple TVs when someone rings the doorbell. I am liking it alot.
