Yes, the CCTV footage can be accessed on your mobile phone. Nowadays, technology allows you to monitor your CCTV surveillance cameras with a mobile phone. This indicates that you're no longer tied to a security monitor for real-time viewing of your security system. In order to view the CCTV footage on a mobile phone, there must be a connection to the camera. If you're trying to use on the same location then you should use a local WiFi link, if it's available. If you're trying to connect remotely or there is no wireless link available then the CCTV camera needs to be connected to an Internet router.
