Monitoring a car park often raises a very concrete problem: no power socket nearby, no wired network on site. GET Conseil solved this exact case with a solar-powered 4G standalone camera, installed and integrated into the client’s existing camera network, to guard against theft in the car park.
The problem: a car park with no power and no network
Many car parks sit at the edge of a building, on an isolated plot, or simply too far from a power supply to connect a traditional camera. That’s exactly what was holding this client back: no way to run a power cable or a network cable out to the spot where a camera would actually be useful.
The solution: a fully standalone camera
GET Conseil installed a solar-powered 4G standalone camera: powered by a built-in solar panel and connected over the 4G mobile network, it depends on no existing infrastructure on site. We then integrated it into the camera network already in place at the client’s site, so supervision stays centralised on a single system rather than multiplying tools.
360° view, and up to 40 metres at night
Two features make this camera particularly well suited to a car park:
- A 360° panoramic view, to cover the whole car park from a single installation point
- A built-in spotlight, giving visibility up to 40 metres in low light and at night — exactly the time window when a car park is most exposed to theft
The result: theft deterred, with no heavy groundwork
By combining energy self-sufficiency, 4G connectivity and 40-metre night coverage, this installation guards against theft in the car park with no trenching, no electrical connection and no need to wait for major groundworks. It’s a solution we recommend whenever a site to monitor sits too far from a power supply or network point — a car park, an outdoor storage area, an isolated secondary entrance.

Frequently asked questions
Does a solar camera work with no connection at all?
Yes. Power comes from a built-in solar panel and the connection runs over the 4G mobile network, with no power cable or network cable to run out to the site.
Can it be integrated into an existing video protection system?
Yes, that’s exactly what we did for this client: the standalone camera was integrated into the camera network already in place, for centralised supervision on a single system.
What is the night vision range?
Up to 40 metres, thanks to the camera’s built-in spotlight, combined with a 360° panoramic view.
For which sites is this solution recommended?
Any site too far from a power supply or network point: car parks, outdoor storage areas, isolated secondary entrances.
