[show]

Having grown in popularity across multiple industries, Redeployable CCTV is now a commonly used term within most businesses. We explore what this truly is and its key features.

Redeployable CCTV Cameras offer multiple unique benefits that allow them to seamlessly work alongside an existing security system or replace your current cameras to enhance your security approach.

But what are the characteristics of a Redeployable CCTV Camera system? How do they compare to fixed CCTV cameras? And what are the benefits of upgrading your system to them? 

Being leaders ourselves in Redeployable CCTV and Rapid Deployment CCTV Towers for over 20-years, we understand the high expectations on the technological capabilities, ongoing support and innovative knowledge required for the businesses we work with.

Typically, cameras of this type can be mounted to a lamppost, building or supplied as part of a Solar CCTV Trailer to locations where power and mounting facilities are not readily available.

Below we explore the true meaning of ‘Redeployable CCTV’, key features involved in them and key use cases for them.

How do Redeployable CCTV Cameras Work?

Due to their portable design, Redeployable CCTV Cameras work completely independently from any mains power and internet connection. However, to do this, there are minimum feature requirements with these cameras in order to provide this.

To begin, Redeployable CCTV Cameras will have their own transmission capabilities and alternative power options like solar panels, in order to provide all the functionality of traditional CCTV that utilises mains power and internet. 

Transmission capabilities are normally provided via cellular connectivity such as 4G/5G.

Unlike fixed security systems, Redeployable CCTV Cameras also require video storage, whether that be via local storage or the cloud. This is to allow video to be kept for review, often which can be completed remotely. 

And most importantly, these units must include advanced cameras that work alongside this system to provide crystal clear imagery, whether that be of live or recorded footage.

Overall, Redeployable CCTV Cameras tend to enhance the security across various applications, however, not all are built the same and there are key features you should look out for to ensure maximised protection.

Key Features of Redeployable CCTV Cameras

Having previously detailed the essential features of Redeployable CCTV Cameras in an article ourselves, which provides an in-depth analysis of what potential buyers should expect to receive as a minimum standard. Below, we’ve provided a brief summary of these features:

High Video Quality 

Any CCTV system should provide high video quality for evidential and investigation purposes. 

Redeployable CCTV Cameras should be able to deliver live and recorded video at high resolution, even in darkness.

Be aware of terms such as PTZ, IR and HD, as these all relate to camera capabilities that support this.

Remote Access

You cannot be present at all times on-site or at your property, therefore, using their cellular connectivity, Redeployable CCTV Cameras should be able to provide remote access to its users.

To ensure maximised compatibility, look for units that allow access at any location via any device from an authorised individual.

This will allow for peace of mind wherever you are, as well as providing the tools to ensure remote monitoring services from trained security professionals as backup.

Local Storage Capability

Onboard storage is beneficial, so the relationship between live video and remote access is managed directly between the software and device itself. 

This 1-2-1 relationship results in zero latency­­­, and provides a truly live video feed rather than delayed clips pulled from cloud storage.

Multiple Powering Options

To provide complete flexibility to your Redeployable CCTV Cameras, you should have availability to units with multiple powering options, including being able to be added onto a CCTV Trailer. 

This lets you customise security to your needs, ensuring sites and properties in remote, off-grid locations still have access to high-quality services.

Video Analytics

Often built into advanced Redeployable CCTV Camera systems, video analytics are a key feature that helps to accurately detect motion, including the smallest of behaviours such as loitering.

Having this will automate surveillance efforts, increase your security efficiency and reduce the workload of employees responsible for viewing and retrieving the footage from the cameras.

Remote Diagnostics

Like with any technology, there are risks to security cameras with potential errors and equipment damage. However, the only difference being that if there’s a lapse in recording or service, your site or property could face disastrous consequences.

To prevent this, any Redeployable CCTV Camera should have remote diagnostics built-in that regularly check the performance of the system.

With our product range, we utilise a unique Heartbeat diagnostics tool that remotely detects any fault with the cameras as soon as they occur. 

This helps prevent or minimise downtime, helping optimise the protection you receive.

Add-Ons and Accessories

Every site or property is unique, and so are their security requirements. This makes customisation important for your cameras as it allows you to personalise them to your needs.

Keep an eye out for any add-ons or accessories currently offered by that security company, as well as any future ones in the pipeline before committing to them.

With our Redeployable CCTV Cameras feature three additional output channels allowing for the addition of ANPR cameras, Time Lapse Video, voice address systems, sirens, blue light alarms and more. 

These allow us to build a bespoke surveillance system that fits the user's specific requirements. 

Security Features

Although Redeployable CCTV Cameras are designed to protect your site or property, it’s also important that your system remains protected also from any external threats.

Therefore, you should make sure that there are strong security features in place to protect your system from this.

We offer Stellifii, an innovative cloud-based system that supports various features of your cameras, including its security.

This unique benefit helps increase the ease and convenience in accessing your footage, but in protecting it also. 

Use Cases for Redeployable CCTV

Having been supplying Redeployable CCTV systems around the globe since 2001, we have consistently worked to provide best-in-class technology, customer support and developing products that meet the exact requirements of several key security sectors. 

In our experience, the following applications are the most appropriate for Redeployable CCTV:

Local Authority Monitoring Applications

The rapid deployment capability and portable nature of Redeployable CCTV make them the ideal solution for preventing and recording crimes such as Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB), vandalism or fly-tipping.

Local Authorities can quickly install the cameras at target specific hotspot areas, whilst having the flexibility of moving them to new locations if requirements change.

We have supported over 450 Local Authorities with our Redeployable CCTV Cameras across the UK, delivering tangible results such as prosecutions, reduced crime rates and improved neighbourhood safety.

Police Applications

Our Redeployable CCTV Cameras have been utilised by over 70% of the UK's Police to tackle various crimes, including ASB, fly-tipping, drug-use, and serious organised crime. 

As with Local Authority applications, the Police can move the cameras from location to location to meet community requirements and tackle known crime hotspots responsively and dynamically.

These cameras can also be deployed to provide public safety at major events, demonstrations, rallies and in public spaces, which following this can then be placed back to their previous location or sent to a new one.

Housing Association Applications

Redeployable CCTV systems are ideal for tackling ASB, vandalism and violent crime within a social housing environment. They help to improve community safety, provide reassurance and reduce crime rates.

Several of the UK's leading Housing Associations use our Rapid Deployment and Redeployable CCTV cameras to target crime hotspots, without committing them to one location.

As part of our range, we provide a Covert Camera that allows Housing Associations to deploy them for evidence gathering purposes in instances of crimes such as drug dealing, gang activity and other serious crimes. 

These can be complex to capture via CCTV systems where they work as a visual criminal deterrent, as it clearly states to criminals that the specified location is being monitored.

Cost-Effective, Convenient Redeployable CCTV Camera Systems

Using Redeployable CCTV Cameras as an alternative or in addition to an existing security system can deliver several key benefits.

These include significant cost reductions, quicker installation and a more dynamic, proactive and responsive approach to your crime prevention and investigation efforts.
