Simrad IP Cam-1 Marine IP Camera, For Simrad/B&G MFDs, PoE IEEE 802.3af, 12V 10-16V, IP66, 1080p, IR Night Vision 10m, 160 deg Viewing Angle, 316 Stainless Steel Housing

Overview

The Simrad 000-15876-001 is a stainless steel PoE IP camera for live video monitoring on compatible marine multifunction displays. It streams up to 1080p (1920 x 1080) video, uses a 1.8 mm lens with a 180-degree wide view, and has IR LEDs for night operation with illumination up to 10 m.

Onboard, it installs like any Ethernet device on your network: run a CAT5/CAT5e cable, terminate an RJ45, and bring the video onto your helm display. Power can come from IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet on the RJ45, or from 12 V DC (10 to 16 V DC). The housing is 316 stainless steel with an IP66 rating for exposed mounting, and the camera’s stream is RTSP so your display can call the video feed directly.

Key features

• 1080p main stream (1920 x 1080) with an optional low-resolution stream (800 x 448) for displays that require it
• 1.8 mm lens with a 180-degree wide field of view for monitoring larger areas like the cockpit, swim platform, or anchor
• IR LEDs for night and dark-area viewing, with up to 10 m illumination range
• Power options: IEEE 802.3af PoE over RJ45 or 12 V DC (10 to 16 V DC) via 2.1 x 5.5 mm male CCTV-style connector
• IP66-rated camera body in 316 stainless steel for wet, salty mounting locations
• RTSP video stream and fixed IP addressing for direct setup on select Simrad, Lowrance, and B&G MFDs
• Low power draw: 1.38 W with IR off and 2.76 W with IR on
• Operating temperature range from -30 C to +60 C, with a camera weight of 250 g

What’s included

• IP CAM-1 stainless steel camera
• Field-installable waterproof RJ45 jacket for the camera’s network connection
• 12 V DC plug for the camera’s DC power connector

Installation and setup

Mount the base where you want coverage, then run the camera cable through a drilled cable entry hole or through the base exit channel. The inner dome angle is held by lock screws, so fully loosen the screws before repositioning and then snug them back down once the view is set.

For the network connection, terminate the RJ45 to T568B wiring and use the supplied waterproof RJ45 jacket anywhere moisture could reach the connector. For power, PoE uses a single Ethernet cable when connected to a PoE injector or PoE switch on your boat’s Ethernet network. If you power it from 12 V DC, place the DC connection where it stays dry, use a suitable rated fuse or circuit breaker, and route power through a dedicated switch so the camera can be shut off when not needed. 18 AWG (0.75 mm2) wire is recommended for the DC run.

Compatibility and system integration

The camera uses a fixed IP address that is shown on the identification label attached to the camera cable. Setup is done on each MFD you want to view it on, using the camera’s IP address and the RTSP URL path: /LIVE/0/MAIN for the high-resolution stream, or /LIVE/0/SUB for the low-resolution stream. There are no user-configurable camera settings, so the work is mostly network, power, and entering the correct stream address on the display.

Night operation and use cases on board

This camera fits well on boats where you want a quick stern view while docking, a bow or anchor watch at night, or a fixed look at the cockpit and side decks while underway. The wide viewing angle helps when you need context rather than a tight zoom, and the IR LEDs keep the picture usable in dark corners and after sunset.

Maintenance and care

Switch power off before cleaning. Wipe the housing with a soft cloth, using mild detergent if needed. Clean the lens window with a microfiber cloth and clean water to protect the coating, and avoid leaving the lens aimed into direct sunlight for long periods.
