Watch Anywhere, Worry Less: Remote Camera Systems for Farms, Cabins, RVs, and More
Need to keep an eye on a remote property, mobile setup, or off-grid location? Whether you're managing a rural farm, checking in on a distant cabin, monitoring a job site, or securing your RV, you can now watch live or review recorded footage from anywhere—right from your phone or computer.
With our TCI Security services, we help you design and deploy surveillance systems that are as mobile or remote as your needs. Using reliable camera hardware, solar or battery-powered setups, and either local NVRs or secure cloud recording, you can get complete visibility even without traditional power or internet.
Situations Where Remote Surveillance is a Necessity
Agricultural land and ranches
Hunting lodges and vacation cabins
RVs and travel trailers
Construction sites and equipment yards
Boats, docks, and marinas
Remote utility infrastructure
Detached garages or storage buildings
Powering the System: Go Solar or Go Mobile
When power isn't available, a solar-powered camera system can run independently using:
Solar panels
A battery bank
A low-voltage camera system
Optional inverter (if AC power is needed)
These systems can run 24/7 with motion detection, smart alerts, and automatic cloud uploads—even miles from the nearest outlet.
Internet Options for Remote Locations
If you're in a location without standard internet, no problem. Here are common ways we help our customers get connected:
4G/5G LTE Cellular Modems
Great for RVs, farms, and job sites. Insert a SIM card and go live.
Works anywhere there's cell coverage
Perfect for mobile or seasonal use
Compatible with external antennas for stronger signal
Satellite Internet (Starlink)
Ideal for off-grid homes or ranches with no cellular coverage.
High-speed internet in remote areas
Works well with our cloud recording platform
Needs solar power due to higher energy use
Long-Range Wi-Fi Bridges
If you have internet at one structure but need cameras on another nearby building, we can bridge the gap wirelessly.
Point-to-point Wi-Fi up to several miles
Great for barns, gates, garages, or sheds
Cost-effective with no new cabling required
Store Video Where It Makes Sense: Local or Cloud
We offer two flexible recording options depending on your setup and preferences:
Local NVR Recording
Video is stored on a network video recorder at the property
Great for areas with stable power and internet
No monthly storage fees
Footage stays on-site and is accessed locally or remotely
Secure Cloud Recording
Video is securely uploaded to the cloud and available from anywhere
View live or recorded footage via mobile or desktop app
Ideal for locations without local storage or with unreliable power
Enhanced with AI analytics
Includes smart alerts, video clips, and event search
Works with 4G, satellite, and Wi-Fi
Both options support motion alerts, smart search features, scheduled recording, and multi-camera views.
