Our Remote monitoring Cameras deliver high quality real time images from Hazardous Area Locations where data connections are not readily available.
These cameras are used in locations to check the status of a location or process to save sending personnel to visually inspect for example to check for blockages/choke points in water utilities locations. Due to the GSM communication path there’s no additional infrastructure (such as Wi-Fi for webcams and wiring/monitors etc for CCTV) necessary.
