Yes, Lorex provides optional Lorex Cloud Storage plans to enhance the security and convenience of your video footage. These plans are designed for select compatible Lorex Cloud Storage Cameras, offering an additional layer of protection by securely storing your recordings in the cloud. This ensures your footage is safe from risks like theft, damage, or local storage failure.

Key features of Lorex Cloud Storage include:

• Flexible storage options – Access your recorded video footage for up to 30 days.

• High-resolution recording support – Cloud storage supports resolutions up to 4K for detailed and crisp video playback.

• Secure and remote access – View, download, and share your recordings from anywhere - even if your camera doesn't have power.

Lorex offers different plans tailored for single or multiple cameras at a single location. While Lorex Cloud Storage Cameras include built-in local storage and do not require a subscription to function, a cloud subscription provides added convenience and peace of mind.

Lorex security cameras are designed for easy DIY installation, with options suited for different home or business setups:

• Wired Security Cameras & Systems: These systems require a physical cable connection between the camera and the Security Recorder (NVR or DVR)

• Wireless (Wi-Fi) Security Cameras: Indoor and Outdoor Wireless Cameras connect wirelessly to your network but require power through an outlet. In some cases, such as with wired Doorbell Cameras and Floodlight Security Cameras, they are hardwired into your existing doorbell or light fixture wiring for power.

• Battery-Operated Cameras & Systems: Battery-operated security cameras offer completely cord-free surveillance with rechargeable power. Available in two types: some integrate with security systems, wirelessly transmitting footage to a recorder for centralized storage, while others function as Wireless Cameras with local and/or Lorex Cloud Storage, connecting directly to your network for remote access via the Lorex app.
