4G LTE Cellular Dash Cams

Constant connectivity for vehicle security

These dash cams use cellular networks to stay online even when the car is parked and the engine is off. Unlike standard Wi-Fi models that require a nearby hotspot, these units use a SIM card or a specific 4G hardwire kit to maintain a data link. This setup allows the camera to upload footage to the cloud instantly if the G-sensor detects an impact or suspicious movement. You can check a live video feed from your smartphone while you are away from the vehicle.

Most models in this catalog support high resolutions like 2K or 4K to ensure clear details. They often use advanced sensors like the STARVIS 2 IMX678 for better low-light performance and HDR to balance bright and dark areas. Look for units that include GPS tracking to monitor the car's location in real-time through a dedicated app.

Remote monitoring and hardware options

This set includes cameras with various channel configurations to cover different angles. Some focus only on the road ahead, while others provide a full view of the interior and the rear of the car. This is particularly useful for rideshare drivers or fleet owners who need to monitor cabin activity.

• Live streaming and instant mobile alerts for theft prevention
• Cloud storage for event-based recording and backup
• 24-hour parking monitors with AI motion detection and Sentry Mode
• Integration with aftermarket remote start and security alarm systems
• Multi-channel setups for front, rear, and cabin views

Installation and power requirements

To use the 4G features, you usually need a constant power source. This often means using an OBD II cable or a hardwire kit connected to the vehicle fuse box. Brands like 70mai and Nextbase provide specific kits for this purpose. Check these listings for mentions of LTE support or bundled SIM cards to ensure the cellular functions work out of the box.

Open a specific brand page to see if they offer a dedicated app for their cloud services. Some manufacturers include a 64GB or 512GB microSD card in the bundle, while others require you to buy a high-endurance card separately. These cameras are designed for high-heat environments and continuous data writing.
