ACTi LTE-SOLAR Solar and Cellular Kit
The ACTi LTE-SOLAR is a solar and cellular integration kit designed to power and connect surveillance cameras in remote locations where grid power and wired network infrastructure are unavailable or impractical. This kit combines photovoltaic charging with 4G LTE data connectivity, solving the two biggest constraints of off-grid camera deployments: continuous power and reliable data transmission.
Overview
Use the LTE-SOLAR kit when you need to monitor remote sites — perimeter fences, isolated equipment yards, construction zones, or temporary monitoring posts — without trenching power or fiber. The kit bundles solar panels for sustained daytime charging with an integrated cellular modem that backhauled video over public LTE networks. Typical scenario: deploy an ACTi camera at a remote gate or warehouse corner, pair it with this kit, and stream live video and recordings back to your NVR or cloud VMS over LTE without installing ground conduit or UPS systems.
Compatibility
Verify compatibility with your specific ACTi camera model before ordering. The LTE-SOLAR kit is engineered for ACTi surveillance camera systems that support external power input and network connectivity. Contact the manufacturer or your systems integrator to confirm your camera model works with this integration kit, as solar and cellular kits often have specific voltage and connector requirements tied to particular camera generations or form factors.
Installation Notes
Site selection is critical for solar kits. Position panels to maximize southern exposure (northern hemisphere) and avoid shade from trees, buildings, or terrain during peak daylight hours — even partial shade cuts charging efficiency significantly. Ensure the LTE-SOLAR unit has clear line-of-sight to cell towers; check signal strength before final mounting. Weatherproof all cable connections with silicone sealant or conduit boots to prevent corrosion and water ingress into battery terminals and solar connectors. Verify local regulations regarding temporary or permanent installations in public right-of-way or restricted zones before deployment.
