Can your webcams be installed outdoors?

Yes, all of our cameras have outdoor protection rating so that they can withstand harsh weather conditions.

What is needed to activate our webcams?

All you need to do is connect them to a power socket and a standard internet connection to broadcast live images across the globe through our website. All cameras run under a host agreement that can be e-signed via email or mobile; someone from our team will get back to you with all details and the next steps.

Is ordinary maintenance necessary?

The only regular maintenance required is cleaning of the camera lens; the frequency of cleaning may vary depending on the season and region where the camera will be installed. Occasionally, the camera may also experience downtime that requires a person to come onsite to resolve. Our team will provide advanced notice prior to coming onsite for any reason.
