SIONYX Nightwave Ultra Low-Light Marine Camera – Black

Description

Match the camera finish to a dark hardtop, mast, or radar arch with the SIONYX Nightwave Ultra Low-Light Marine Camera in Black. This fixed 720p camera uses the same Black Silicon CMOS sensor and 44° field of view as the white version, providing an ambient-light image for helms that need an additional view during docking, nighttime cruising, or observation around the boat. Looking for low-light video without a bulky thermal turret? The black Nightwave connects through BNC analog video, runs on 12V DC, and offers Wi-Fi/Bluetooth support for compatible SIONYX app features.

Integration

The black Nightwave requires a compatible analog-video monitor or MFD input to display its BNC video feed. It is not an Ethernet IP camera, NMEA 2000 device, radar, GPS receiver, or chartplotter. Confirm the display’s video-input type and any required BNC-to-composite adapters before installation.

Its low-light image depends on available starlight, moonlight, nearby lighting, weather, spray, glare, target contrast, and lens condition. Use it as an added observation aid, not as a replacement for proper lookout, radar, navigation lights, charts, or safe vessel operation.

Installation Notes

Mount the camera where its fixed 44° view covers the intended area without obstruction. Test the picture before final installation, especially if fitting it to a tall arch, hardtop, or mast. Avoid direct exposure to exhaust, intense deck-light glare, heavy spray, or obstructions such as rails, antennas, and rigging.

Protect the BNC and power runs with marine-grade routing, sealed entries, strain relief, and correctly rated circuit protection. Inspect the bracket, lens, housing, and cable seals regularly, especially after offshore operation or heavy-weather use.

Before Ordering

Confirm the needed black housing finish, compatible analog video input, 12V DC supply, viewing angle, fixed mounting location, cable path, and any required monitor or adapter before ordering.
