The Features of our WiFi Backup Camera

You have seen a features overview of this camera system and how to use it. Now, here’s a more detailed look at these features.

• WiFi Connection

Conventional backup camera systems either use connecting cables, which requires a compatible monitor, or they send the signals wirelessly, which also requires a compatible monitor system. With our WiFi Backup Camera for iPhone and Android Smartphone, all you need is your WiFi-enabled Android or Apple smartphone to receive the signals from the camera.

• Rechargeable Battery

In a bid to make this camera as portable and versatile as possible, we included a rechargeable battery with a 2100 mA capacity. This enables the camera to send its signals for up to 5 hours at a go. We also include a USB cable in the package, so you can easily recharge the camera once the battery runs down.

• Over 50-ft Range

You can receive the signal at a maximum distance of 50 ft, allowing you enough flexibility to choose a mounting point for the camera. Obstructions are also not a worry at this distance, and this means you receive a fully clear digital video stream at 50 ft.

• Strong Magnetic Base

To make this camera as easy to use as possible, it has an industrial strength magnet in its base. This magnet can attach to any metallic surface and keep up a strong bond even at high vehicle speeds. This offers you a range of options on where to mount the camera. You can also mount it on non-metallic surfaces using the Velcro mounting pad, which is also included in the package.

• 30-ft Night Vision

With six infrared LEDs, you can back up your vehicle or simply watch your hitch even in pitch darkness. These LEDs provide enough illumination for a distance up to 30 ft, enabling you to hitch or backup any time you want to, and without needing extra lighting.

• IP68 certified

The IP (Ingress Protection) rating for electronic devices is a standard protocol of testing and certifying how much protection the device’s case offers for the components inside it against solids and liquids. The first number certifies it for solids, while the second number is for liquids.With an IP rating of 68, this WiFi Backup Camera for iPhone and Android Smartphone is certified hermetically sealed. This means that it’s dust tight and water-tight even when immersed in water.

• Great savings

Using WiFi is a clever means of saving money because you don’t need to buy a monitor anymore. Nearly everyone also has an iPhone or Android smartphone these days, so it’s a very sensible technology.
