Night Vision Camera for Your Chartplotter: Compatibility by Model

What comes in the box
The harness ends in a standard connector that matches the version you order: BNC (coax) for Analog or HDMI for HDMI. Every camera also includes a BNC to RCA adapter, so displays with an RCA video jack are covered.

Every camera also includes stainless mounting screws. The XD Pro adds a 5 A inline fuse, an anodized aluminum mount and dielectric grease.

Which video port does your display have?
Which night vision camera is best for my chartplotter?
Both Nitron cameras connect the same way, so the choice comes down to where you run. Inshore and coastal, the XR1 is the popular pick. Far offshore on the darkest nights, the XD Pro has the more sensitive sensor and a wider view. Add an IR light to either camera for runs with no ambient light.
Nitron XR1Inshore and coastal. 42 degree view, 1080 video.
Nitron XD ProFar offshore. 50 degree view, video up to 4K.
