Wireless Back-up Camera Recommendations

Our 44 ft DRV is arriving in a couple of weeks and having previously owned a Newmar, & never had a 5th wheel, I'll be lost without one.

Wireless would be awesome if anyone has recommendations????
  • The voyager works great it locks in real nice, I have a 36 ft 5er and no issues at all. If it does go a little low then just adjust the antenna on the monitor if needed but like above usually always good signal strength.
  • Why not hard wire the camera to the monitor? You want the best signal you can get or you will be un happy. We had a back up camera installed on our truck and did not buy a cheap model. I cannot tell you how happy it was for me to have it for backing out of parking sites last winter in Az. Old neck is the reason. We don't back up much with the fifth or we would have done what you are thinking. good luck on your purchase. Always best when buying new to set it up and enjoy .

    Does your Voyager send a good signal for the distance?



    Friend of mine and I both have 40 Cedar Creek 5th wheels with Voyager Wireless Cameras. We found it necessary to extend the antenna cable from the rear cap to the front cap to keep an uninterrupted signal.

    We both used:

    1)80" antenna extension part #WVOSANTEXT
    2)35' extension cable part #WVOSANT-EXT35

    Ordered from: link

  • I have a voyager also and it works great with my 35' trailer. The signal is usually 2 out of 3 bars
