GSM SIM Card Spy Cameras
A more portable and less restrictive means of operating a Surveillance Spy Camera utilises GSM technology or WiFi through a mobile 4G SIM card. Functioning in much the same way as a WiFi camera connected to a home or office network, GSM 4G cameras can literally be placed anywhere a mains power and a decent 3G, 4G, 5G signal are present. There is no requirement with a GSM camera to be linked to an associated WiFi network ie; home / office and type in the SSID name and password making a mobile data SIM card a more convenient option for many customers.
One of the advantages of GSM technology does not limit distance whereby a home WiFi signal may not reach the garage or outbuilding at the bottom of the garden. Another advantage may be when you need to monitor your hotel room valuables when you are out sightseeing, and using a 4G SIM card does not require the hotels WiFi network to be used. With GSM coverage expanding rapidly across the globe a GSM camera with a mobile data allowance for those looking for a convenient and wire-free setup.
MOBILE DATA GSM 4G / 5G CAMERAS
GSM 4G and 5G mobile security cameras provide peace of mind for the home and business owner, and police are more likely to prosecute anti-social behaviour, an intruder, theft, vandalism or a disturbance because a picture paints a thousand words. Hidden cameras can also be used to gather evidence in legal cases and disputes. Spy cameras provide an effect solution when you need to have 'on-guard' around the clock video surveillance for example; when you are leaving your house and should there be activity that should not be happening, the GSM camera will send a push notification to your smartphone alerting you to presence.
Simultaneously, the GSM camera will begin recording and storing video footage to its internal memory. The memory of the GSM camera can be remotely accessed from your smartphone and the footage viewed and the relevant footage downloaded to your smartphone for safe keeping and providing evidence where required.
Unlike WiFi connected cameras which rely on a stable internet connection from a network service provider, a GSM camera relies on a stable data connection provided by 4G / 5G networks. Two of the main advantages are that 4G / 5G mobile data has far reaching coverage and does not require the SSID name and password of the network provider. This means a WiFi connection can be attained in rural areas where standard WiFi may not available or to reach the end of your garden where tools are kept in a lockup shed.
GSM cameras have further versatile use for the small business owner and the private house owner such as protecting property and safeguarding confidential information in restricted areas.
