Security Cameras Without a Subscription (and Without Wi-Fi)

A camera without a subscription records to storage you own: a hard drive in an NVR at your property, or a microSD card in the camera. You still get live view, playback and alerts on your phone, but there is no monthly cloud fee, and wired systems keep recording even when your internet or Wi-Fi drops.

How do cameras work without a subscription?

  • Wired PoE systems record 24/7 to a hard drive in the NVR. The internet is only used for remote viewing, so recording continues if the internet drops.
  • 4G solar cameras need no Wi-Fi or power at all: they record to microSD and stream over a 4G SIM.
  • Wi-Fi cameras record to their own microSD card and use your home Wi-Fi for the app.
  • In every case the phone app is free, and footage stays on equipment you own.

Wired systems: no subscription, no Wi-Fi needed

Record to a hard drive in the NVR. Internet is optional.

How to choose

Where footage is stored

An NVR with a hard drive keeps weeks of 24/7 footage. microSD suits single cameras and event recording.

Do you have reliable Wi-Fi?

If not, choose a wired PoE system (records without internet) or a 4G camera (uses a SIM instead of Wi-Fi).

Phone access without a plan

The free app gives live view and playback over your home internet or the camera 4G SIM.

Keep footage private

Local storage means your recordings are not uploaded to someone else’s cloud.
