When it comes to protecting your site, uptime isn’t just a technical metric, it’s the foundation of security. Every second your surveillance system is offline, your assets, equipment, and people are vulnerable.
That’s why at Sun Surveillance, we don’t settle for “almost always on.” We deliver 100% uptime, guaranteed 24/7/365. While competitors advertise 97% uptime, that 3% difference adds up to over 10 days of downtime per year.
In today’s world, no one can afford 10 days of darkness.
What Downtime Really Means
An average 97% uptime rate might sound impressive until you realize what it looks like in real-world terms.
97% uptime = 10.95 days offline per year
99% uptime = 3.65 days offline per year
99.9% uptime = 8.8 hours offline per year
Even a few hours without coverage can mean missed footage, unrecorded incidents, or delayed response times, all of which can cost thousands in theft, damage, or liability. At Sun Surveillance, zero downtime isn’t just a goal, it’s how we operate every single day.
How We Achieve True 24/7/365 Reliability
Our Solstice Pole, Solstice Kit, Solstice Light, H-Base, and Solstice Trailer are built for one purpose: to perform continuously, regardless of power availability, weather conditions, or location. Here’s how we do it:
1. Solar-Powered Independence
Our surveillance platforms generate and store their own renewable energy. No trenching, no grid dependency, and no interruptions. Even during cloudy days or extended nights, our systems have a minimum of 5 days battery backup to keep cameras running without fail.
2. Scalable System Architecture
Every Sun Surveillance unit is designed to scale with your needs. Whether you’re protecting one access point or an entire job site, our modular solar platforms expand effortlessly without adding power demands or complicated wiring. As your operation grows, your security grows with it.
3. Rugged, Field-Tested Design
From construction sites and transportation hubs to remote oil fields and municipal assets, our systems are engineered to withstand heat, cold, rain, dust, and impact and ensures continuous operation in the harshest conditions.
