Compatibility & Applications
- Mounts as a white surface-mount camera in marine electronics camera installations.
- Wires to 12 V or 24 V hardwire power circuits.
- Fits installations that require 1080p high-resolution camera output.
- Pairs with docking views using boat-specific distance markers.
- Pairs with user-defined guidance lines for aligning a boat during docking.
For a docking-camera retrofit, installers can hardwire the unit to a 12 V or 24 V circuit and use the surface-mount housing. Its documented differentiator versus generic surface cameras is the combination of boat-specific distance markers and user-defined guidance lines.
