Rapid deployment surveillance
Some sites cannot wait for a permanent install. VDS Rapid Deployment Surveillance Systems are self-powered and connect over the cellular network, so a site can be under live monitoring within hours of delivery.
- Solar powered
- Cellular connected
- Operational within hours
Security on day one
Early-stage projects often have no reliable power and no network on site. Vacant properties and overflow lots have the same problem. Our mobile units need neither.
Each unit carries high-definition cameras set up for outdoor, wide-area coverage. Units can be moved as the footprint of the site changes, and coverage can be scaled back or redeployed when the need ends. You are not locked into a long-term contract for a short-term security need.
What you can count on
No power hookup
Units are self-powered with solar capability.
No wired internet
Units connect by cellular network, so there is nothing to trench or wire.
Relocatable
Reposition units as work areas, staging zones or lot layouts shift.
Same live monitoring
Every unit feeds the same three-layer filtering and the same operators as a fixed system.

Our Rapid Deployment Surveillance Systems are built for sites without established infrastructure. Mobile units are solar-powered and cellular-connected, which removes the dependency on site power or hardwired network access.
How fast can coverage start?
Mobile units require no hardwired power or internet, so there is no extended installation lead time. A system can be operational within hours of delivery. Contact VDS for a timeline specific to your location.
Can the units move as a project progresses?
Yes. Units can be repositioned as the project footprint, active work areas and material staging zones shift. You are not locked into a fixed coverage footprint.
Is this only for construction?
No. The same units suit vacant properties in transition, dealership lots without fixed cameras and remote yards.
