From protecting public spaces to supporting Police forces, Redeployable CCTV provides a wealth of benefits across multiple industries. We explore these in greater detail.
Redeployable CCTV Cameras are movable surveillance units designed for rapid installation and relocation, allowing users to respond to temporary or changing monitoring requirements.
Unlike fixed cameras, they require no permanent infrastructure, making them ideal for environments where priorities shift, short-term risks emerge or immediate visibility is needed.
Utilising Redeployable CCTV cameras as either an alternative or to complement fixed fibre-based CCTV systems can provide a wealth of benefits.
Being the UK’s leading supplier in Redeployable CCTV and CCTV Towers, we have supported various industries and businesses with their security.
Below, we outline the key benefits associated with Redeployable CCTV, detailing which industries are best suited to them:
The Key Benefits of Redeployable CCTV
Rapid Deployment and Ease of Installation
Setting up fixed CCTV systems is a time-consuming, expensive process.
The construction work required to run cabling to multiple cameras is disruptive and for those requiring near-immediate coverage, fixed CCTV may not be able to provide you with this.
Due to their design, Redeployable CCTV Cameras can be mounted onto lampposts and buildings with ease, providing secure coverage with minimal requirements from you.
Some systems will also offer varied power options that support remote, off-grid location without continuous power.
We carefully considered this factor and offer solar power options alongside our Redeployable CCTV Cameras that allow our systems to power autonomously.
This means there’s no need for you to establish mains power or internet connection, both speeding up and easing the process of installation for you.

Flexibility
One of the key benefits of Redeployable CCTV cameras is their portability.
This means that if your surveillance needs change, you’re able to adjust the setup of your cameras quickly and easily relocate them to the new specified location.
For the Police and Local Authorities, crime hotspots change on a regular basis, creating complexity for them with managing the protection of the area.
In this instance, fixed CCTV systems would limit their opportunities of capturing crime as moving them is unlikely to be possible or will be a lengthy process, in which the hotspot may no longer exist.
Redeployable CCTV offers a strategic approach to surveillance that lets users target hotspots to prevent crime such as fly-tipping, Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) and gang crime.
They are also ideal for temporary monitoring applications such as traffic management or events such as demonstrations, rallies, parades and music festivals.
Watch the video below to find out how WCCTV successfully supported Brighton Council tackle fly-tipping hotspots in their area, leading to 6 fixed penalty notices within 24 hours of deploying our Redeployable CCTV Cameras:
Rapid Deployment and Ease of Installation
Installing a fixed CCTV network is both time-consuming and expensive.
The construction work required to run cabling to cameras is a disruptive process that prevents police and local authorities from quickly deploying CCTV at crime 'hotspots' or temporary locations such as public events or construction sites.
Redeployable CCTV requires little to no infrastructure for deployment; they are plug-and-play solutions for video surveillance. The cameras can be mounted to lampposts or buildings and powered by 110/240V mains.
WCCTV provides solar power options for locations without continuous power. This autonomously powered redeployable CCTV system is ideal for monitoring applications at off-grid and remote locations without power and/or mounting infrastructure.
Temporary Applications
Redeployable CCTV is ideal for providing temporary monitoring and security for short-term applications such as festivals, road works, political demonstrations and major sporting events.
Users can transfer cameras from their standard locations to provide extra monitoring for any temporary event duration without an organisation having to invest in additional CCTV.
This not only boosts the security of these applications, but is cost-effective for you as a business.
We previously worked with Dudley Council who, in conjunction with West Midlands Police, temporarily moved their fleet of Redeployable Cameras to cover the route of a planned EDL march for additional monitoring purposes.
Following this, the Council could simply relocate them back to their main locations with minimal operational disruption.
Remote Access
Not available to all Redeployable CCTV Camera systems, some advanced offerings will back their products with remote monitoring and access.
This ensures that you can access live and recorded footage from your video stream for any device, wherever you are.
By having this, you can easily review footage and check in on your site, building or public space to provide you with peace of mind.
In addition to this, Redeployable CCTV backed by remote monitoring services also means that there will be a monitoring or alarm station where trained security professionals will assess any triggers and respond from an off-site location.
This feature provides a proactive and reactive approach to security without needing to have an individual on-site at all times.
Every redeployable CCTV system supplied by WCCTV contains built-in 4G/5G transmission technology to transmit live and recorded video.
This ensures users can access their cameras anytime, from any connected device - or link them directly into a CCTV control room.
We also provide camera viewing software, which includes both desktop and mobile apps, completely free of charge and unlicensed.

High Quality
Quality will vary from one manufacturer to the next, however, for advanced systems, the camera and service quality will often be of greater standard.
This helps improve the image quality of videos which supports any evidence and legal proceedings.
We have continually invested in developing cutting-edge mobile surveillance solutions, improving the functionality, video resolution, live streaming speeds, onboard storage capacity and introducing a range of integrated accessories to ensure every camera we provide meets our clients' exact requirements.
Our Redeployable CCTV cameras contain built-in video analytics functionality for intelligent surveillance applications and automated security.
Additional input channels are also available to allow secondary cameras such as ANPR cameras, secondary PTZ cameras, Time Lapse Video or static cameras.
Revenue Generation
Unlike fixed systems, the flexibility of Redeployable CCTV Cameras provide you with the opportunity to build additional revenue streams.
Depending on the manufacturer, your organisation or business could loan the cameras to other organisations for the duration of major public events or activities.
Several of our clients have secured an additional revenue stream by doing this with our Redeployable CCTV Cameras and this can be utilised to support other sectors within their area.
Whilst working with Reading Borough Council, they loaned our cameras to Reading Festival for public safety and traffic management during the popular event where boosted security was required.
Control Room Integration
Some Redeployable CCTV Cameras like ours can integrate into an existing CCTV control room.
This allows for centralised control and monitoring alongside any current security infrastructure, making it easy and convenient for you to boost the pre-existing system, rather than needing for this to be removed.
We have previously worked closely with video management software providers such as Meyertech, Synectics and Tyco/Johnson Controls to ensure full interoperability.
When supplying Bournemouth Borough Council, they had a pre-existing Synectics front-end video management software.
To ensure a streamline security service, we simply integrated our cameras to work with this for them.
Who Should Use Redeployable CCTV Cameras?
As the UK’s leading supplier in Redeployable CCTV Cameras and CCTV Towers since 2001, we’ve worked alongside various businesses and organisations to enhance their security, particularly the public sector industry.
In our experience, we have identified the following applications as those best suited to Redeployable CCTV:
Police
Police are commonly faced with issues such as ASB on a daily basis and alongside other crimes, this can be an overwhelming problem for them to manage.
Through the use of Redeployable CCTV Cameras, Police can place them at crime hotspots and relocate them as they need if new threat locations arise.
This allows them to remain ahead of offenders and increase the likelihood of prosecution for those found to be offending.
Major Events Security
Events only have temporary requirements and therefore, fixed CCTV systems are often unsuitable for these types of applications.
However, with Redeployable CCTV systems, event organisers can relocate their cameras across their various events with ease.
We also offer rental options which allow you to customise your security to the event and premises needs in which you are seeking support for.
Local Authorities
Similarly to the Police, Local Authorities manage various sectors within their specified location, including the increasingly common issue of fly-tipping, which has risen for many due to factors like bin strikes and tip closures.
Many Local Authorities will be aware of hotspot areas where particular crime takes place and due to Redeployable CCTV Cameras’ flexible design, they are ideal for this application.
Cameras can be relocated across different hotspots with minimal disruption and work as a visual criminal deterrent that prevents offenders from committing any illegal activity in the first place.
Traffic and Highways Management
Traffic and highway development regularly takes place to help improve the transportation routes for users across the country, however, with that comes management issues.
It’s vital that during these times you manage traffic and your highways to ensure the safety for users and any workers on-site.
Needing no infrastructure and offering high-quality camera coverage, Redeployable CCTV is an effective and cost-friendly solution to support this, especially when backed by remote monitoring services.
Construction Site Security
Construction sites hold various high-value assets, from metal materials to expensive machinery and tools, all of which are enticing to criminals, especially thieves.
Stolen machinery, tools and machinery are costly to replace and create project delays, having knock-on effects with the outcome of the project and business reputation.
Redeployable CCTV Cameras are a perfect security solution for construction sites, requiring no infrastructure and powered autonomously, they can be fitted at remote and off-grid locations without you needing to skimp on quality.
Why Choose Redeployable CCTV For Your Security?
Fixed CCTV systems no longer secure sites like they once did, hence why transitioning over to Redeployable CCTV Cameras is necessary for your business in order to remain protected against any security threats.
Criminals’ tactics are constantly developing and the knock-on impact on communities, businesses and overall area can be costly. Therefore, security should be top of your priority list.
We have spoken with clients about their struggles with security and public safety, and how important having the right security solution is to prevent and protect this.
Our Redeployable CCTV Cameras offer a flexible, high-quality security solution backed by a fully-managed service.
From installation and ongoing maintenance support to decommissioning the equipment, we are here to relieve the burden of security from you, so you can focus on your key responsibilities away from this.
