Too much actually. Initially, the rear view cameras were black and white and still delivered usable images, even with the usual built-in rear light \u201csparkles\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The newer ones provided color in the picture, even if only during the day. At night they switch to b\/w and the resolution drops significantly in comparison. But especially at night it&#039;s important to be able to see where you&#039;re going and where you&#039;re maneuvering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now it&#039;s up to you whether you use additional headlights to provide more light and therefore good visibility, or whether you install powerful cameras that have proper IR illumination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"WLAN_oder_POE\"><\/span>WiFi or POE<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next topic is the decision to lay WLAN or POE (Power Over Ethernet) cable. Anyone who prefers a secure connection will make the latter choice. WiFi is not always reliable in aluminum-clad motorhomes, as you are almost sitting in a Faraday cage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another problem with \u201ccheap\u201d cameras: most of them work with cloud services, which causes a lot of traffic and comes at the expense of the SIM card data volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ideal case would be a camera with a POE connection, powerful IR diodes, wide angle, PTZ to be able to target the area of interest as needed, and possibly bidirectional audio to enable two-way communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hikvision%E2%84%A2_Kameras\"><\/span>Hikvision\u2122 cameras<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But then we end up with Hikvision, for example, with a high price, top quality, renowned manufacturer with a correspondingly large selection of professional cameras, but also for the consumer sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cameras installed here are the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.de\/gp\/product\/B07MLJJ357\/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hikvision DS-2DE2A404IW-DE3<\/a> with 2.8 \u2013 12 mm focal length. The cameras run with, for example, the IPCamViewer app (iOS \/ Android) on any cell phone or tablet, as well as SecuritySpy on Mac OS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Darstellung_auf_Handy_Tablet_Monitor\"><\/span>Display on mobile phone \/ tablet \/ monitor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since navigation is often done on tablets these days, this can also be used to display the camera images. A router is also often on board, which means that nothing stands in the way of connecting your cell phone\/tablet and camera via the router&#039;s WiFi hotspot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laying the POE cable saves you from having to lay an additional power supply, but requires a POE-capable switch. If you don&#039;t care whether you lay one or two cables, you can also lay a normal Ethernet (CAT7.) cable and a two-wire cable for the power supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Praxis\"><\/span>Practice<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here two cameras were installed on the left and right above the rearview mirrors near the roof <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.de\/gp\/product\/B07MZN58B8\/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Brackets<\/a> assembled.
