AHD 1080P Side View Vehicle Camera

AHD 1080P Brake Light Rear View Vehicle Camera

Why are Hidden Camera Surveillance Car, Truck and Bus reversing cameras different to others? Compare camera specifications and the first thing you notice is TV Lines. Most others are not bad at 400-600 TVL but take another look at our full camera range. All cameras are AHD ((Analogue High Definition) 1200 TV Lines or double the clarity of others. We don’t even stock low resolution vehicle security cameras. Need we say more?

AHD 1080P BRAKE LIGHT REAR VIEW VEHICLE CAMERA

Model Number – PC-698

 

Description

Ideal for cars, buses, trucks, forklifts, agricultural vehicles, heavy machinery, tractors, trailers, caravans, semi-trailers, horse floats and so much more.

This particular AHD 1080P HD Brake Light mobile camera is designed for a rear view with a wide 170 degree fisheye view.  The difference between this particular camera and others is the mounting bracket and wider view. It has built in IR night vision which auto senses low light but also allows for a desired camera angle view day or night.  

The monitor view could be looking virtually downward from the rear of a delivery truck, caravan trailer, even certain cars, or SUV’s but that’s to say it couldn’t be mounted in any direction. The camera lens as depicted in the photos below, shows that the camera lens can be rotated in various angled directions to obtain that clear desired view.  This camera even supports rear view parking guideline viewing not available elsewhere.  

Our Brake Light Camera could be mounted anywhere and for any purpose with your choice of monitor mirror and non-mirror reverse image like views. Our Brake Light mobile security camera is more “purpose designed” for certain visual applications.  A rear view vehicle camera such as this could be used on its own or in conjunction with one or more side view or forward view vehicle cameras depending on user needs. Cameras are interfaced with a monitor using  a desired length of DIN cable. Connect one or more cameras for single, dual, or quad view (some with recording) AHD monitors. Drivers may elect to view 1 camera only or manually switch between a two way dual split or 4 way quad view albeit with simultaneous single full screen or multi camera view.  

Drivers generally choose how to view one or more cameras, rear view or not.  Some mobile camera monitors and cameras support full screen rear view when reverse gear is selected. This triggers the rear view camera to display full screen with or without optional audio. In other words, the correct AHD monitor will support a range of camera functions.    

Our IP69K rated AHD Mobile Security Cameras are different for several reasons.  When the vehicle ignition or accessories is switched on/off so too will the reversing camera system. We use the term “reversing camera” or “reversing camera system” because most drivers need one or more cameras for OH&S purposes, safety assistance and general rear side view reversing guidance. See our full range.

HCS offers a wide range of AHD 1200TVL vehicle reversing cameras, either DIN connection cabled or wireless. It’s also important to know that the monitor is up to the same AHD camera standard and once again, why it’s important to be informed and have that pre purchase knowledge.    

Not all cameras are the same. Other than resolution, mobile truck & bus cameras take an absolute beating due to constant movement, vibration, and relentless outdoor weather so the camera/s must be tough and tremendously solid which is why we choose these particular mobile cameras.

Is IP69K waterproof?

Products that carry the IP69K rating are ideal for facilities where hygiene and cleanliness are critical, as they are proven to be durable and resistant against water, chemicals, high water pressure, and high temperatures associated with demanding cleaning and OH&S measures. In other words, these cameras are waterproof but not submersible.

 

10G Shockproof what does that even mean?

You often hear the word G-force used in the context of astronauts being launched into space or a jet fighter pilot. An astronaut experiencing a force of ten Gs, for example, is experiencing a force equal to 10 times the force of gravity. Most of us would pass out with head-to-toe G forces of just 4 or 5.  I’m just saying, our mobile cameras are 10G rated which has to be taken into consideration when choosing the right mobile camera for your vehicle, no matter what it is. 

 

Warranty

Sure, no problem we offer 2 years camera replacement warranty, express postage excluded. We are an Australian registered ABN company since 1982 not some fly by night business.

 

Are mobile cameras easy to install?

Please note we don’t install. Hidden Camera Surveillance monitors & reversing cameras have a voltage overload and reverse polarity protection to ensure the hardware isn’t damaged by fitting mistakes. Other than mounting a few brackets its very much straight forward although you do need to connect the monitor to vehicle power.  Please ensure any camera or monitor is installed by a licensed auto electrician.  Damage caused by accidental improper and unauthorised installer is not considered warranty.

If on the other hand the camera is the wireless model, perhaps fitted to the rear of a truck, bus, trailer or caravan, normally the camera will take power from a taillight or reverse light which in turn powers the wireless reversing mobile camera permanently or only when needed. Otherwise, don’t be concerned, the auto electrician will advise best option for your needs.

How are cameras connected to a monitor?

Assuming we are talking about cabled cameras rather than wireless, Hidden Camera Surveillance provides a DIN cable as pictured below. Din cables are optionally available (included with kits) in 5,10,15 & 20m lengths but can be joined together if needed to extend the length. 

Our 4 PIN DIN plug cables are flexible yet tough and weatherproof with a thicker sheathed copper core surpassing that of others.  So, you order the cable length required or call our office.  One DIN end will plug into the camera and the other end to the monitor. Very straight forward but the key is connecting the monitor to vehicle power.  Fortunately, our monitors accept a wide power range from 9-35V which in turn powers the camera/s and a microphone if ordered. Audio camera microphones are an option and otherwise not included with any camera.
