Tactacam launches cellular-enabled Defend 360 security camera, offering powerful, panoramic property monitoring

Amid the rise in remote property surveillance, the company's new research reveals 33% of U.S. consumers who have security cameras installed prefer cellular over internet or Wi-Fi

DECORAH, Iowa, Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Tactacam, America's leading manufacturer of outdoor game cameras, today announced the launch of Defend 360, its cellular security camera that delivers full 360° visibility, pan-tilt-zoom and live view, without the need for Wi-Fi, wires or expensive installation. Defend 360's built-in solar panel, nationwide multi-carrier cellular coverage and affordable price put professional-level security within reach for everyone.

Defend 360's launch comes as more people turn to cellular security cameras over Wi-Fi-enabled ones, especially when in secluded areas — new Tactacam research shows that one-third of U.S. consumers (33%) who have security cameras installed chose cellular-enabled ones specifically because "internet service is unreliable" and cellular provides better remote access. With demand climbing, Defend 360 delivers a powerful, affordable alternative that removes the barriers of high cost, complex setup and long contracts — obstacles which have long kept customers from securing remote or off-grid locations.

"Other cellular security systems can cost thousands," said Kelly Hover, CMO at Tactacam. "Defend 360 gives you the same level of protection, with more flexibility and less hassle, for a fraction of the price. We believe powerful, reliable security should be easy to use and affordable enough for everyone."

Defend 360's features include:

• Motion activated alerts with photo and video options provide ultimate protection and peace of mind
• Works without Wi-Fi, using built-in solar panel for ongoing power
• Nationwide 4G LTE cellular coverage, automatically connecting to strongest signal across carriers
• Live View and full 360° pan-tilt-zoom control right from your phone, using the Defend by Tactacam app
• Affordable price: MSRP $199.99 with low-cost data plans starting at $5/month
• No contracts or hidden fees; manage data plans right in the app
• Rugged, weatherproof design for year-round protection
• Fast and simple setup in under five minutes

Defend 360's launch underscores Tactacam's commitment to making advanced, cellular-powered, user-first security accessible to everyday users. With it, Tactacam is expanding access to reliable security in rural, outdoor and underserved areas, making more people feel safe.

"I was looking for a security camera that didn't depend on Wi-Fi, and the Defend 360 checked every box," said Kacey Dennis, Tactacam customer. "It's durable and easy to use, and now I know my property is covered no matter where I am."
