Why Engage with a Remote Video Monitoring Service?
Anyone can have a CCTV app on their phone and take a look at their cameras now and then, but what happens in the middle of the night when there is a serious event taking place and the staff member entrusted to check the cameras is not contactable i.e. on leave, their phone has no service or its on charge or they simply didn't hear the alert or call? This is where we come in.

No Internet?
If internet connectivity is not possible on your site we have the option of deploying a 5G wireless transmitter device to perform this task.
In this instance, an additional data plan will be required @ $70.00+gst per month for a plan with modest use and $140.00+gst per month for sites which require a more intense viewing schedule.

There is a one-off supply and installation charge for said 5G device of $295.00+gst
