Garmin BC 40 Wireless Backup Camera with License Plate Mount
Garmin BC 40 Wireless Backup Camera with License Plate Mount — Product description
The Garmin BC 40 clips into a standard license plate mount and beams a clear reversing view to your compatible Garmin display, wirelessly. No monitor to wire in, no video cable to run the length of your rig. Up to 720p, a wide 160 degree view, night vision, and an IPX7 waterproof housing built for trucks, RVs, and trailers.
Backing a trailer down a boat ramp or hitching up a fifth wheel is a lot easier when you can actually see what's behind you. The Garmin BC 40 gives you that view without running a video cable the length of your truck. It clips into a standard license plate mount and sends its picture wirelessly to a compatible Garmin display, up to 50 feet away.
You get up to 720p resolution across a wide 160 degree field of view, so you catch the hitch, the bumper, and whatever's creeping into the blind spot behind you. Built-in night vision keeps the picture usable after dark, which is when most of us end up backing into a slip or a driveway anyway. The housing carries an IPX7 waterproof rating, so rain, spray, and road grime don't bother it.
It runs on 12 or 24 volt power, so it fits trucks, RVs, and trailers alike. This is the camera only, without a monitor. It pairs with a compatible Garmin display you've already got at the helm or on the dash. Black housing keeps it low-key on the plate.

Frequently asked questions
Does the BC 40 come with a monitor?
No. This is the camera only. It sends its wireless signal to a compatible Garmin display you pair it with, so there's no separate screen in the box.
How far will the wireless signal reach?
Up to 50 feet. That covers most trucks, RVs, and trailer setups from the plate back to the helm or dash display.
Is it waterproof?
Yes. The housing carries an IPX7 rating, so rain, spray, and washdowns won't hurt it.
Can it see at night?
It has built-in night vision, so you still get a usable picture backing into a slip or driveway after dark.
What power does it need?
It runs on 12 or 24 volt power, which fits most trucks, RVs, and trailer wiring.
