In short: a solar CCTV trailer (also called a mobile surveillance trailer, portable solar camera or mobile CCTV tower) is a towable unit with solar panels, a battery, a raised mast and one or more cameras, so a site can be watched without mains power or cabling. Emirtech builds them in the UAE. Prices start from AED 28,000 and depend on trailer size, number of cameras and quantity.

Our trailers, built in the UAE




What is on the trailer
What goes on a solar camera trailer
Every unit is configured to the site. These are the building blocks.
Solar panels
Hinged panels that fold flat for towing and tilt out to face the sun when parked.
Battery bank
Stores the day’s solar energy so the cameras keep running at night and on dull days. Capacity is sized to your runtime target.
Telescopic mast
Raises the cameras well above fences and site cabins. Height is chosen to suit the view you need.
Cameras
Fixed bullet, PTZ, panoramic, ANPR or thermal cameras, with infrared or white light for night vision.
AI analytics
Person and vehicle detection, line crossing and intrusion alerts, so you are alerted to events instead of watching hours of footage.
4G / 5G router
Live view, playback and alerts on a phone or control room screen, without any site network.
Recording
On-camera SD, an on-board recorder, or streaming to your own VMS or cloud storage.
Lockable cabinet
Aluminium cabinet keeps the battery, router and recorder out of the dust and away from tampering.
Deterrence
Optional strobe, siren, speaker or floodlight triggered by the cameras.
Trailer hardware
Single-axle road-towable chassis, tow-eye, jockey wheel, stabiliser legs and a winch.
How it works
From sunlight to a live view on your phone
- Sun charges the batteryPanels feed a charge controller and battery bank all day.
- Mast goes upThe winch raises the mast and the cameras to working height in minutes.
- Cameras watch and analyseCameras record and flag people or vehicles in the zones you define.
- 4G sends alertsAlerts and live video reach your phone or control room over the mobile network.
- Tow to the next siteFold the panels, lower the mast and move the unit when the risk moves.
Where it is used
Where a portable solar camera makes sense
Construction sites
Cover plant, materials and site entrances out of hours, before permanent power or network exists.
Car parks and open lots
Watch vehicle yards, temporary car parks and event parking without cabling.
Events and temporary venues
Entrances, queues and perimeters for the days an event runs.
Remote yards and labour camps
Sites far from the grid, where trenching or poles are not practical.
Roadworks and utilities
Short-term monitoring of works areas, substations and pipelines.
Farms and desert estates
Gates and perimeters on large plots without mains power.
Ports and logistics yards
Extra coverage for stacking areas and gates while permanent cameras are planned.
Vacant plots and developments
Deter dumping, theft and trespass on land waiting to be built.
Configuration options
Choose the size, cameras and power
Trailer size
Compact single-axle units up to larger platforms. Chosen for the number of cameras and panels.
Number of cameras
From one camera to a multi-camera head with a wide view plus a close-up PTZ.
Power
Solar panel area and battery size set to your runtime target and the UAE summer and winter sun.
Mast
Manual winch mast as standard on our builds. Height set per site.
Analytics and ANPR
Intrusion and loitering alerts. ANPR where camera distance, angle and lighting allow.
Alarms and lights
Strobe, siren, speaker or floodlight, triggered by an alert.
Connectivity
4G / 5G, Wi-Fi bridge or wired uplink, plus your VMS or control-room integration.
Quantity
One unit built locally. Fleet orders can be manufactured to specification overseas.
Why locally built
Why build a mobile surveillance trailer in the UAE
Mobile CCTV towers fail in the field for simple reasons: dust in the cabinet, a battery that cannot cope with summer heat, a mast that is awkward to raise, or a router that loses signal. A trailer built, wired and tested in the UAE can be adjusted to those local conditions before it reaches your site.
- Designed for UAE heat, dust and sun angles, with a ventilated lockable cabinet.
- We wire, configure and commission the cameras, router and recorder ourselves.
- Changes to mast height, panel area or camera count are made in our own build, not by a long overseas change request.
- Service and spares are local, backed by an Abu Dhabi team that has installed CCTV since 2018.
Need many units? See custom and OEM manufacturing for large quantities built in China or India to your specification.

UAE conditions
Designed for UAE heat, dust and sun
Summer heat
Batteries age faster when hot. Cabinets are ventilated and the battery is sized with headroom.
Dust and sand
Panels collect dust. A simple cleaning routine keeps the output up, and we can include it in a maintenance agreement.
Winter sun
Shorter days and cooler nights are covered by the same battery sizing, confirmed in your quotation.
Mobile coverage
We check 4G / 5G signal at the site, because a camera without signal cannot send alerts.
Before you place a unit: Permissions and privacy. Place trailers on private land with the owner’s permission. Public roads, pavements and public spaces need approval from the relevant authority or landlord first. Point cameras at your own site, avoid private areas such as neighbouring windows, and display CCTV signage. Emirtech advises on camera positions but does not issue permits.
