Off-grid integrated surveillance monitoring

Deploying outdoor surveillance monitoring in an off-grid scenario could be very challenging compared to its conventional counterparts. Installation of traditional outdoor surveillance requires laying large cables and setting up stable networks, which areas off the grid might not be able to accommodate.

An off-grid monitoring scheme often involves solar panels and wireless transmission technology to do the trick. However, doing so comes with hefty costs in installation and maintenance. Every device must be installed independently and the whole system lacks basic maintenance features, making it impossible to be operated remotely and generate on-site fault data in time.

With its accumulated experience in technology and innovation over the years, Dahua has developed an integrated off-grid security solution that ticks all the boxes for an effective and efficient monitoring of scenarios beyond the power grid lines.

Dahua’s integrated off-grid security combines 4G network transmission technology, video surveillance (including AI functions) and solar power technology to build an integrated off-grid monitoring system. It is suitable for areas with no access to electricity and network connection.

This solution includes a solar module primarily made of monocrystalline silicone with aluminium alloy frame and tempered glass panels. It offers excellent weak light performance and outstanding solar cell efficiency.

In addition, its MPPT Solar Controller boasts high charging efficiency (>99%), RS-485 communication and 10A maximum charging/discharging capability. Since the entire solution has an IP66 waterproof rating, its lithium battery, controller and other components are well protected against harsh weather or jarring outdoor conditions. It also ensures a long product life, making every penny of your investment count.

The 2MP/4MP camera itself has an ingress protection rating of IP67. It offers high performance 4G module and AI functionalities that can amp up your monitoring operation just like those in regular application scenarios found in the city. There are also pole mount and wall mount options for the mounting brackets, which are waterproof and present a hidden line design.

With the integrated components clearly stated above, the benefits of this solution need no further explanation. It doesn’t require extra cables for network and power connection as it is equipped with a robust solar panel and a built-in 4G module that enables stable wireless transmission of data. Its sophisticated and integrated design significantly reduces installation and maintenance costs.

Its high ingress protection ratings ensure that all parts of the equipment are well protected and can withstand all-weather operation. When connected to Dahua’s NVR and DMSS mobile app, users can view real-time videos of the monitored scene and check battery status, allowing for remote system monitoring and maintenance. They can also receive alarm push notifications when the battery level is low or when intrusion has been detected. Overall, all these advantages contribute to the entire system’s monitoring performance in off-grid environments.
