OEM High-Mount Brake Light Reverse Camera for Mercedes Sprinter & VW Crafter

Technical Specification Table

Product Description

The Brake Light Type Reverse Camera for Mercedes Sprinter (2006–2023) and VW Crafter (2007–2017) is a professional rear-vision solution engineered for commercial vehicles, fleet operators, and OEM retrofit programs. Designed as a direct replacement for the factory third brake light, this camera system integrates seamlessly into the original vehicle structure without altering exterior aesthetics or drilling additional mounting holes.

OEM-Integrated High-Mount Design

Unlike conventional bumper-mounted cameras, this system adopts a high-mount brake light integration architecture, providing a higher and wider rear viewing perspective. This mounting position significantly improves obstacle visibility during reversing, docking, and parking operations—particularly critical for long-wheelbase vans and high-roof commercial vehicles.

The housing geometry is developed to match the original brake light profile of Sprinter and Crafter models, ensuring factory-level fitment and appearance. From an exterior perspective, the vehicle retains its OEM visual integrity while gaining an advanced rear monitoring capability.

Video Performance & Signal Compatibility

The camera is available in AHD (720P / 1080P) and CVBS signal formats, allowing compatibility with a wide range of aftermarket and OEM head units, monitors, and MDVR systems commonly used in fleet and logistics vehicles.

The optimized optical lens offers a wide viewing angle up to 170°, reducing rear blind zones and enabling drivers to detect pedestrians, loading docks, pallets, and low-height obstacles with higher confidence. For night or low-light environments, optional infrared or enhanced low-illumination sensors maintain clear image output under minimal ambient lighting.

Built for Commercial & Fleet Environments

Engineered for long-term outdoor exposure, the camera module is fully sealed to IP68 waterproof standards, providing reliable operation in rain, snow, vehicle washing, and dusty logistics environments. The internal PCB and lens assembly are protected against vibration, thermal cycling, and moisture ingress—common challenges in daily commercial vehicle use.

The operating temperature range from −30°C to +70°C ensures stable performance across diverse climates and regional deployment conditions.

Electrical Integration & Installation

The system supports plug-and-play installation, integrating directly with the vehicle’s brake light assembly and power system. No additional drilling or body modification is required, significantly reducing installation time and eliminating the risk of corrosion or water leakage caused by aftermarket drilling.

Multiple connector options—including RCA and aviation connectors—are available to support different system architectures, from simple rear monitors to multi-channel fleet MDVR platforms.

Applications & Use Scenarios

This brake light reverse camera is widely used in:

• Commercial delivery vans

• Logistics and courier fleets

• Passenger transport vans

• Campervan and motorhome conversions

• Municipal and service vehicles

For fleet operators, the system enhances reversing safety, reduces accident risk, and supports driver awareness initiatives. For OEM and retrofit partners, it provides a cost-effective, scalable rear-vision solution compatible with large-volume vehicle deployments.

OEM & Customization Support

The product supports full OEM customization, including:

• Housing color and structure adjustments

• Cable length and connector customization

• Private labeling and branding

• Signal and lens configuration

• Packaging and documentation support

This makes the camera suitable for OEM programs, fleet tenders, and aftermarket distribution across Europe, the Middle East, and global markets.
