Wired Backup Camera Systems Y-Series (Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6) and WY7, WY702 – Frequently Asked Questions
The wired backup camera system comprises a camera unit, a display monitor, and associated connecting cables. The camera captures a wide-angle view of the area behind the vehicle, while the monitor displays the real-time video feed transmitted from the camera, enabling the driver to maintain continuous situational awareness of rearward conditions. The camera is wired to the vehicle's reverse light circuit and activates automatically upon engagement of the reverse gear, ensuring a clear rearward view even under low-light conditions.

Both the 49-foot and 39-foot extension cables are included with product models that feature both rear and side cameras (Y2 / Y4).
