World's Longest-Running, Battery-Powered Outdoor Covert Pole Camera for Police and Law Enforcement

Cut the cord: Get the freedom to quickly and easily set up portable outdoor covert video surveillance wherever there's cell service, without AC power — up on a pole, down on the ground, or in a vehicle, all with the same camera.

Boundless' The Rabbit™: the first Anywhere Outdoor Cam™ -- It goes where the case goes

Multipurpose: 4-in-1 covert camera system for police and other law-enforcement teams — works as a hidden utility-pole surveillance camera, SWAT tripod camera, concealed ground camera, and in-vehicle camera, all with battery power and cellular service.
BoundlessSecurity's The Rabbit: the First Anywhere Outdoor CAM, solar- and battery-powered, cellular outdoor covert utility pole camera, SWAT pole camera and tripod SWAT camera, ground camera, vehicle camera, rapid deployment, for police law enforcement and private investigators, police hidden utility pole surveillance cameras. Shown on 3.5" dia. pole for size reference. Utility-pole bracket provided. Click image to learn more.
  • Ultra-low power, solar- and battery-powered: only 1/10 power of ordinary cellular PTZ pole cameras, runs weeks instead of days on an external battery, or indefinitely with a compact solar power system - the longest running battery powered, cellular outdoor covert PTZ camera for law enforcement
  • Rapid tactical deployment: utility pole or other poles, vehicle, SWAT tripod, concealed on ground, horizontal or vertical — can be used as a hidden utility pole surveillance camera, a police pole camera or pole camera for law enforcement, or as a portable ground or vehicle system anywhere there is cell service, no AC hookup required
  • Situational awareness: live, remotely controlled video for command and entry teams -- ideal for perimeter monitoring, overwatch, or long-term observation
  • Time-saving dual internal recording: continuous 1920 x 1080 HD video and forensic time-lapse (hour files and day files) - review an hour or a day in one minute over the air with normal cell service.
  • Long-range clarity: 10x optical zoom, detail sharp enough to identify license plates at 450 ft, with scratch-resistant glass window, not plastic, making it a powerful, rugged, multipurpose, law enforcement surveillance camera
  • Integrated system: live video, HD normal video recording, timelapse, true PTZ, and cellular modem - a complete cellular, combination covert pole camera and ground camera solution with only external power required
  • Command integration: simple browser interface, and ONVIF / VMS integration allows operations center to live-view and PTZ-control it
  • Small: 4" dia. x 9" high including low profile antennas, only 4 pounds

Sharp snapshot from internally recorded, 1920x1080 evidentiary video, at maximum zoom, clearly shows SUV license plate at 150 yards (4 dpi resolution). Snapshot from internally recorded, 1920x1080 evidentiary video, bank windows at 160 yards
SAVE TIME: In addition to continuously internally recording normal video, Boundless' multi-purpose pole cameras continuously internally create time-lapse videos that are optimized for law enforcement. View an hour or a day over the air in one minute with normal cell service -- and view as easily as normal recorded video.

This "hour" video, showing one hour compressed into in one minute with 960x540 resolution and snapshots every 5 seconds, was recorded in 2021. Our current time-lapse is even better - more frequent snapshots make the motion even smoother while keeping reviews fast.

DIY Power Sources for Boundless' Covert Pole Cameras

DIY: Rechargeable 12V LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) battery of a physical size that fits in the chosen enclosure and has standard, 15A Anderson Powerpole connectors. Every 12V 40AH = 480WH (watt-hours) of battery capacity typically provides about 5 days' continuous run time of Boundless' ultra low power, outdoor covert pole camera system, on each charge. DIY: 24V 30W Solar Panel. Ideal for police solar powered camera deployments. Requires a pole-mount bracket and Boundless' Solar-Ready Battery Box, which requires one or more LiFePO4 batteries. In sunny months, in many parts of the USA, a small, properly oriented, 24V 30W panel that is connected to our battery box should provide continuous operation.
