Enjoy the Convenience and Flexibility of Powered Wifi Security Cameras
Wifi security camera systems wirelessly transmit video signals to an NVR recorder or directly to an app via the cloud, making for easier, faster, less intrusive installation. Powered Wifi CCTV cameras need to be situated within range of a nearby power socket. Swann has Wifi CCTV security cameras that can often be mounted inside or outside, perfect for monitoring entrances, detached garages, outbuildings, and more.

How are powered Wifi CCTV cameras different from wired cameras?
Wired systems require a cabled connection between the cameras and a recorder box. Powered Wifi security cameras must connect to a power socket but then transmit video and audio using Wifi. Typically, powered Wifi camera systems record video clips that are shorter in length compared to their wired counterparts, which can stream video clips of any length.

Do I need a power source for my powered Wifi security cameras?
