Vosker VKX 4G LTE Wireless Security Camera
- CCTV Lens Guide
- Hard Drive Size Guide
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
| Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
| 3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
| 6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
| 12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
| 16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).

Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
| 2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
| 3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
| 4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
| 5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
| 6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
| 8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
| 12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

Enhance Your Surveillance Capabilities
The Vosker VKX 4G LTE wireless security camera has been designed to offer significantly longer battery life (up to 6 months) through an integrated solar panel that is twice the size of any found on previous devices in the Vosker range. Greater control can be achieved through the instant video access with On-Demand Mode and better autonomy is offered via an intuitive new front access design.
To receive photos and videos from your Vosker camera to a smartphone/tablet connected to the Vosker app, you will need to purchase a transmission plan.
Crystal-Clear Surveillance
Perfect for commercial properties, holiday homes, industrial sites, and remote locations, the Vosker VKX 4G LTE wireless security camera uses a pre-activated SIM card to connect to all major networks in most countries*, transmitting crystal-clear images and videos to your phone the instant its motion sensor is triggered. The images are presented in full colour by day and in black and white after dark, ensuring you are always in-the-know when it comes to activity in your observed location.
Instant Observation
On-demand mode provides instant access to video footage, so you can see what is happening on your land in real-time, without having to wait for the device to be triggered. Use on-demand mode to request a 15-second video clip through the Vosker app.
Snooze Detections
A new feature introduced in the VKX is the ability to snooze the camera’s detection capabilities for a preset duration. Perfect for a moment of privacy, or for longer periods if you think surveillance is not necessary. Pausing the camera’s detection capabilities can be discreetly carried out using the Vosker app.
Extended Battery Life
The VKX features a built-in solar panel which is 2x larger than the solar panels found on previous models in the Vosker range. This solar panel harnesses the power of the sun, charging the VKX’s removeable V-LIT-B3 battery and providing up to 6 months of reliable observation. This solar panel features a frameless design, significantly enhancing its performance by reducing the likelihood of snow or dust accumulating and blocking the panel over time.
Intuitive New Design
A new and intuitive front-access design allows for greater autonomy and easier access to your wireless camera. Batteries can be swapped easily, without the need for dismounting the camera from its mounting arm, meaning you can carry out any maintenance easier and quicker than ever.
A new, more robust antenna design makes the VKX more ideal for tough conditions, withstanding harsh weather and ensuring your observed properties are always covered come rain or shine. But it’s not just designed to withstand the elements, this new antenna achieves enhanced signal receptivity, ensuring a better connection and therefore more seamless communication between the camera and the Vosker app.
The new deterrent light on the VKX has been strategically positioned to signal the camera’s presence whilst warding off any potential burglars or animals that come within range of the wireless camera.
Built-in AI Technologies
The Vosker VKX features Vosker SENSE AI image recognition technology which accurately differentiates between human disturbances and instances where wildlife wanders past the field of view, reducing the number of notifications the user will receive and ensuring unwanted alerts are kept to an absolute minimum.
Built-in GPS
A built-in GPS tracker is included, so you can rest easy knowing the exact location of your camera in instances where it has been misplaced or stolen.
Vosker Plans
With a pre-activated SIM card included with your purchase, the Vosker VKX is ready to keep you covered 24/7, even in areas with very little cellular reception, so there is no need to purchase a SIM card from a third-party provider. Vosker offers a range of data plans, with varying video and still image allowances to choose from, so you can find the perfect plan for your application. And what’s more, there’s no strings attached — choose from monthly or yearly plans. There’s even a 7-day free trial included, so you can decide which plan works best for you.
