Garmin backup cameras
Garmin makes a BC 20 and BC 30 backup camera for use with some of their GPS units. The specs seem to be the same so what's the difference?
Forum Discussion
I have the BC -20 it works well. The BC 30 is the newer version. For a better signal an extension cable maybe required.(sold separately 30.00 or so) I needed the extension cable for use with my 40 foot 5'er.

The BC 30 backup camera unlike the BC 20 can be paired with many more compatible GPS and not just limited to the dezl and RV line of Garmin GPS. The BC 30 can be connected to constant power and not just back up lights so you can now view what is behind you, simply by toggling between camera and navigation modes. When the BC 30 is paired with a compatible GPS navigator this wireless backup camera can easily spot vehicles, pedestrians, and other objects when backing up, or if wired to constant power toggle between navigation and camera to be viewed on the screen. The wireless range of the BC 30 is up to 45 feet between camera and GPS which is a good sized motor home or truck.
