Overview

Discover the CARKOOL AHD 1080P 4-Pin Backup Camera, designed to pair with select CarPlay screens that support AHD 1080P.

Why it fits your CarPlay screen

Setup is straightforward with a DC 12V plug-and-play power connection. The 2.5mm jack connects to the CarPlay screen port, while the 4-pin end attaches to the camera. A red reverse-trigger cable links to the vehicle’s reverse light, enabling automatic activation when needed. The system targets CarPlay displays that accept AHD 1080P signals, so please verify compatibility with your model before installation. If your device uses a different format, you may not see the intended image.

The combination of a six-glass lens and AHD video improves color fidelity and clarity, contributing to a more confident reversing experience.
