A few have celluar modems. Many of these cameras require at least one wire for power, even though the name may suggest otherwise. However, some wireless cameras have even begun to include batteries. This makes them truly wireless for limited periods.
Due to their low installation costs, wireless cameras are becoming increasingly popular in security and industrial applications. There's no need to run expensive cabling systems with flexible mounting options. Wireless security cameras can be utilized in settings that were previously inaccessible.
