The CELL-LINK from SPYPOINT can turn virtually any non-cellular trail camera into a cellular device. Reduce trips to your hunting property to pull cards, and save that time and money. Even more exciting is the opportunity to take advantage of the mobile scouting tools that SPYPOINT offers. All the new AI technologies, species filters, advanced weather and mapping functions integrate with your non-cellular camera by connecting it to a CELL-LINK.
The CELL-LINK connects to the LTE cellular network to ensure years of service in the ever-evolving cellular network technology.
• Universal compatibility
• Compatible with the LIT-10 rechargeable lithium battery pack
• LTE network connectivity
The CELL-LINK connects to your non-cellular camera via the SD card slot. Plug our SD card cable into the card slot on your camera, route the cable down to the bottom of the camera housing, and close the camera door on the cable. The flexible, rubberized cable has been designed to be closed in the camera door and maintain the weatherproofness of your camera. Then connect the other end of the cable to the CELL-LINK and install above the camera.

From MAD to GLAD!
I purchased the Link-Evo about 2 years ago & could never get it to work. I followed the instruction and made sure the SD card was formatted prior to turning on and had all lithium batteries, etc... Fast forward to now, 2020. Lets try again. Watched some more YouTube videos, did some more trouble shooting and a firmware update. *Make sure to delete the camera from your phone AND your online account*. I could not get it to transmit to my cell phone in my house! Decided to take it to work with me in the center of town and it finally communicated with my phone and it has been working ever since. I ended up ordering a signal booster just to ensure when I put it out in the woods that it would continue to work and it has! Tested it in the backyard for a week before putting it in the woods and we are 3 weeks in. So far so good. I say all of this to try and help others that might of had a similar issue.
Since it's been working I decided to try out the Cell-Link on some of my other cameras. Followed the instructions and turned them on and connected them before going to the woods. I have 2 of them out right now and they are currently transmitting. I will be putting a 3rd one out this weekend. The picture quality isn't the best but for $49.99 to turn a regular camera into a cellular one, you can't beat it. Plus, you can pull the quality images off the physical SD card later.
I hope this review helps others if you've had problems in the past. I'm not gonna lie, I was so frustrated and mad in the beginning with the Link-Evo but so far I'm a pleased customer now.

Cell Link Cord Squished
I’ve had three of these Cell Links and I thought that it would be a great idea for some of my older cameras…unfortunately I have had trouble with each one. At first they all worked well, but then when I take them out into the field the stop working. What I have come to think is that when you close the door, it squishes the cord and then the transfer of info is altered. I can’t find any evidence of this but I can’t figure out any other reason for the issues. Disappointed

Excellent
I have had my cell link out nearly 18months now with no problems. Its in a low traffic area and is still running on original lithiums - 2 transmissions daily. I have changed batteries 2-3 times in the regular camera att'd to this - Alkalines. The only problem I have is everyday at the morning transmission time it somehow triggers the camera hooked to it and it takes 1 pic everyday at exactly the same time exactly when the transmission time is. - It works great and is left out all winter and summer (Canada Ont - +30c / -20c). These Cell links are fantastic for the right application., even better on sale. Issues people have I think are related the the camera att'd and NOT the CellLink.

Super , donne une 2ieme vie à nos vielles caméras
Très bonne idée, donne une 2ieme vie à nos vielles caméras. Très compact et bien construit. Le câble carte SD reliant le Cell-Link est résistant, seulement faire attention de bien le positionner lors de la fermeture de la caméra reliée, J'en ai 2 et les utilisent avec caméra spypoint SPY C6 et SPY IR-7. Il peut être utiliser avec une autre marque de caméra aussi. La qualité de vos photos dépendent évidemment de votre caméra . Forme de recyclage des anciennes caméras. Peut être relié à une batterie 12v aussi. SUGGESTION : à quand le Cell-Link avec un câble reliant avec une carte micro-sd ....

So far, so good!
I just got this set up on one of my cameras. Set up was easy. The camera is in an area with very poor service. The app says the camera has 2/5 signal strength. Have had no issues getting pictures. So far, all is working great. Nice not to have to walk near the bedding area to check the camera!

Great Idea - EVEN BETTER Brought To Life!
I started slowly last year with two Cell Links to "upgrade" my two older Primos no cellular cameras. My brother who has 21 Spypoint cameras recommended their products. THye work flawlessly. It's amazing how they made cameras that were not the latest, and turned them into "current tech".
They were very easy to set up and get on line.
I was so pleased that since last hunting season 2023, I now have added 10 LM-2s and 2 G-36s to my collection. All easy set up, activation. GREAT pics. Reliable transmission for all even with as low as 45-50% cell signal in some areas of use!

These are great cameras
I have 7 micro links. They work great. Folks I talk to get a little frustrated when they don't work but folks need to get some patience work though bugs and be patient when troubleshooting on calls or chat. I have had every problem I have had solved with help from technical support. For the money these are great cameras but you need patience as with a lot of issues in life. I bought one FLEX camera about 3 months ago and am very pleased with it. They keep making these cameras better and better. Support from Spypoint has been awesome! I have recommended these to many friends!

Disappointing
Disappointing, purchased two of these products on Amazon brand new and Attempted to set up with two different cameras and followed the instructions step for step, left out for three days. Signal great but unfortunately upon checking there were photos on the SD card and not one transmitted or sent to my phone. Waste of money, products returned.

Very nice add on tool
I got the Cell Link instead of another cell cam to utilize on an existing camera. It honestly does the trick! Sends pics just as I need and was easy to setup. The only downfall was I got the basic plan of 250 pics, it was used up on day 25, I had assumed it would stop trying to send pictures until the plan renewed but instead stored over 175 pictures then dumped them all at once taking up the new months 250 plan. This could be resolved by adding a “turn off data” switch like the Flex has. All in all though I am pleased with the Cell Link and will be buying another soon.

Great Priduct!
I purchased and put in service this product about 5 days ago. It was super easy to set up. I took it out of the box. I purchased the version with Verizon service. I took it out of the box and followed the instructions. They were easy to follow. I turned it on in town and performed a test with a camera (old Wildgame Innovations). It started sending pics immediately. My hunting property is 40 minutes from my house so having pics sent to me is critical. When I got to the stand I was going to use it on, I got real concerned because I had only 25% signal strength, but it was late and I didn’t want to take time to go to another location, so I left it and returned home. What I really thought was cool was my cell phone at this location did not have any signal, but the cell-link was getting a 25% strength. Anyway by the time I got back to an area my cell had a signal, I received pics of me when I was setting up the camera. Early the next morning I received pics of a doe. I have since removed the Wildgame Innovations and added a newer Moultrie. It worked equally well with each. I have since purchased a LINK-MICRO-S-LTE. I can’t wait to receive it and add it to the App. Speaking to to App, it was also easy to setup. I like receiving pics as they are taken.

It’s excellent
I bought this a week ago and I will say it’s a great tool to have. I have hunting land it’s hard to get signal on it still sends me pictures. The universal part is sweet I can use it with my old cameras but noticed I bought some new ones this year and they take a Micro sd so I can’t use it with them cameras. Over all I love mine

Not Impressed!
I purchased several of these as a way to convert several of my critical game & trail cameras to cellular. The setup is easy enough. My issue is with the data cable from the unit to the cameras. If the cameras' SD card is on the side, forget about it. The data cable/SD card won't allow the camera case to close. If the data cable/SD card is on the bottom, similar issue; however, if you run the data cable straight out the bottom. The cable will crimp and not connect to the adapter. If you gather the cable up and put it in the body of the camera. Well, the camera chassis won't close. Or if you get it to close, it puts so much pressure on the internal monitor screen that the camera won't work. Great price, poorly thought out design.

Worked great... for a day...
Received as a Christmas gift, and procrastinated putting it to use. Finally got it out this fall for the first time and was very excited to start receiving photos that evening.
Days of troubleshooting from very helpful staff determined that the unit is defective, likely a sim card issue, but new unit was to be shipped, whenever they come available again.
Then I go to the website to look at other cameras after almost a month of waiting, considering ordering a cellular camera just to see the $79 cell link on sale for $29. How can it be on sale, if the product is unavailable? Is everyone stuck waiting, or are warranties being delayed to fulfill new purchases?
My case was supposed to be escalated some time ago, and to now see a 2 for 1 special on the product is a slap in the face. Not exactly the way to make a customer consider another purchase of any of your products.

Will not transmit photos
Received this as a gift to upgrade an existing trail camera. The unit will start up and indicates it is transmitting, but there are no pictures on the SD card and the log shows failure to transmit errors. Am very frustrated with Spy Point products as this is the second issue I've had this fall. Was so tired of working on the last issue, that I'm not inclined to go through the process on this item.

It could be great
I'm on my 2nd one the first one quit working after the sd cable adapter quit registering in the camera and the replacement cord cost almost as much as I had paid for the cell link on sale so I bought another one hoping for better luck. With this one the cable has survived but it like the first one has issues. It will run great for a couple of days then it stops sending photos no matter how many times I format the card and even with the latest firmware. It will stop sending photos even though the camera is taking photos still. (I know this because I watched it happened this evening while hunting) if it does send pictures it will change the date and time on the camera to several days prior I wanted to say this was the cameras fault but I put regular sd cards in the cameras and ran them with no issues. If you only plan to run this cell link for a few days at a time and then check your camera to reset the cell link and reset the date and time on your camera then it's perfect for you but at that point you're just better off running regular sd cards and saving yourself 20 dollars if they're on sale 60 if they're not (which is crazy because other brands have quality cell cams for $70-$80) I'm ordering a different brand hoping I can get this to work for the remainder of my unlimited plan and then throwing these pieces of junk away. Save yourself money and a headache they are not worth it.

This is great for those old non-cellular cameras
I bought this Cell Link to use with some old non-cellular cameras (Moultrie) I had laying around. It works great with the camera I have out in the field. The Cell Link comes with a very thin cord that runs from your cameras SD card slot (not a micro SD card), to the Cell Link. The cord is thin enough to to close the camera door on it.
This Cell Link has been out for about a month and a half. It has been working great. Just know that whatever settings you have on your camera (trigger timing, etc) cannot be changed through the app, of course.
The only problem that I have come across to date is that mice have chewed through the cable between the camera and the Cell Link. The cable is replaceable through SpyPoint at $13, but I have to figure out how to keep the rats/mice from chewing through it.
If you’ve got some old working cameras laying around and don’t want to spend more money to replace them for a cellular camera, I’d recommend this.

Fonctionne vraiment bien et surtout TRÈS pratique
J'avais une caméra 'cheap' et j'ai connecté le CELL-LINK et cela a fonctionné du premier coup. L'activation du CELL-LINK se fait en 30 secondes. Il ne faut pas oublier de faire une petite loupe avec le fil à l'intérieur du boitier de la caméra afin que celui-ci ne tire pas sur la carte SD quand on ferme le boitier et empêche un bon contact de la carte SD.
Il serait intéressant d'avoir la possibilité de transférer des photos en 4K.
Il serait intéressant de pouvoir demander un photo manuellement.

Very satisfied
I purchased two of these to try out when they were on sale. I already had a Link WMV and a Link Micro LTE that do very well. On one of the Cell Links I used a Moultrie cam that is about 5 years old. It has been working fine. On the other one I used another Moultrie that is probably 10 years old. I only got one picture off of it and it never worked again, although the status on both the camera and the Cell Link showed all was good. I swapped the camera with a WGI camera that is 5 or 6 years old and it is working great. I would purchase again if I had any more cameras that were not the age of my old Moultries. Found out real fast that you don't put any of these cellular cameras on a feeder unless you have the unlimited plan. Crows used up the 100 pictures in 2 days. Only thing I would have asked for differently is that some cameras have a way to switch the night pictures to color. These don't unless I am missing it. I heard reports that these used up batteries fast. My oldest set has been out for about 7 months and is showing 46% remaining on the battery. I have no complaints about that.

Great idea, cheap quality
Another Spypoint disappointment, purchase 2 of these since the idea is amazing, when through 2 SD cords in 1 year.
Following year with new cords, trail cameras can't read as card from this product

Questions
does the cell link come with the sd card with wire to connect to camera
Hello there, the Cell-Link doesn’t include an SD card, but it does come with the cable needed to connect it to your camera.
Date published: 2025-10-21
How will the cell-link-v perform in low service areas? If I have one bar of Verizon on my phone will the cell-link-v work?
Hello there, the SPYPOINT CELL-LINK lets a regular trail camera send photos to your phone using a cellular connection. In areas with low signal, like one bar of Verizon, it can still work, but photos may take longer to arrive. For best results, place the CELL-LINK where it gets the strongest signal. If you still encounter any difficulties, please contact us at 1-888-779-7646, and our team will assist you further.

Does the cell-link-v send videos or 3 photo preview of videos, or is it not compatible with videos at all?
Hello dmcm, thank you for your enquiry. We would like to clarify that the Cell-Link only transmits photos and does not have the capability to transmit videos.
Date published: 2025-09-05
What is the difference between the Cell-Link and Cell-Link-V adapters?
Hello, thank you for your question. The only difference between the CELL-LINK and the CELL-LINK V is the SIM card inside. The CELL-LINK can connect to any available provider in the area, while the CELL-LINK V works exclusively with the Verizon network. As for the SD cable adapter, both versions use the same one.
Date published: 2025-06-22
What types of battery can be used to power up.
Hello, thank you for your question. Our Cell Link can be powered by standard AA batteries or by our rechargeable battery, the Lit-10. You can find more information about it using this link https://www.spypoint.com/us/en/products/accessories/power/lit-10/05558.html

Can you run the cell link on 12 volt battery?
Hi, thank you for your question!
Yes, the CELL-LINK can be powered using a 12V battery. This setup is ideal for long-term use in remote areas, especially when battery changes are not convenient.

Does the cell link give free pictures
Hello Jerry,
Thank you for your question! Yes, the CELL-LINK is included in the free transmission plan, which provides you with 100 photos per month at no cost. If you need more images, you also have the option to upgrade to a paid plan.
