i-PRO WV-VC31 HD In-Car Backseat Camera with IR

Overview

The WV-VC31 is a purpose-built HD camera for in-car video (ICV) surveillance in law enforcement patrol vehicles, prisoner transport, and fleet management. It captures clear, evidentiary footage of backseat occupants in zero-light scenarios via integrated 850nm IR illumination—the invisible wavelength preserves situational awareness during sensitive transport operations. Powered by standard 802.3af PoE, the WV-VC31 eliminates the need for separate 12V power harnesses, reducing installation complexity in vehicles where cable routing is already constrained. The wide-angle lens is optimized for short cabin distances and confined spaces, delivering sharp focus across the entire rear compartment without blind spots.

Compatibility

The WV-VC31 integrates with any PoE-capable vehicle power system or mobile video recorder (MVR) that supplies 802.3af standard PoE. Compatible with law enforcement in-car video platforms, fleet management recorders, and vehicle electrical architectures that support PoE injection. If your vehicle relies on legacy 12V-only systems without PoE capability, you will need to provision a separate PoE injector or midspan device to power the camera.

Installation Notes

Vibration and shock-resistant construction withstands continuous vehicle operation. Tamper-resistant design protects against intentional damage. Extended operating temperature range supports deployment from cold-weather patrol to high-heat summer conditions. The RJ-45 connector accepts standard PoE cabling; confirm your vehicle electrical architecture supports 802.3af PoE delivery before installation. Automatic ambient light sensing activates IR illumination without manual intervention—no operator adjustment required during low-light or nighttime transport.
