Tactical Pole Cameras: Viewing Rooms and Corners Before Entry

How Zistos APEX and Zistos SPRINT tactical pole cameras let teams view rooms, corners and attics from a covered position, and which kits carry them.

What a tactical pole camera does

• Extends a camera head around corners, over walls and into attics
• Sends live HD video to a handheld display
• Keeps the operator in a covered position while the team reviews the space on screen

APEX and SPRINT: two ways to work

Zistos APEX uses modular camera heads and motorized poles. The ±120° motorized head articulation lets the operator angle the view from the handle.

Zistos SPRINT is a compact, quick to deploy system for teams that want a lighter kit.
