1. What is a 7-inch wireless backup camera system?

A 7-inch wireless backup camera system is a device that helps drivers see what's behind their vehicle when reversing. It consists of a camera mounted on the rear of the car and a display screen, usually measuring 7 inches, installed on the dashboard or rearview mirror.

2. How does it work?

Wireless backup camera system work by transmitting video through wireless 2.4GHz signal. The camera captures a live video feed of the area behind the vehicle and transmits it wirelessly to the display screen. This allows the driver to see obstacles, pedestrians, or other vehicles that may be in their blind spot. The system is activated automatically when the car is put into reverse gear.

Wireless backup cameras work with fewer cables than wired ones—‘fewer’, as opposed to none at all, because there’s a high chance the camera in question will still need power cord to get power and work.

Simply put, what makes them ‘wireless’ is that they don’t require wires to communicate information. That being said, it avoids the clumsiness and inaccessibility associated with wired security cameras.
