Capturing full-color digital night vision in sub-millilux starlight, this Sionyx CRV-500C night camera pairs a 1280×1024 Black Silicon CMOS sensor with a 44-degree field of view, outputting analog NTSC, USB-C, and Wi-Fi video across a 1.9-lb gray housing.

- 44-degree field of view expands channel visibility
- Consumes under 3W preserving battery reserves
- IP67 waterproof enclosure prevents internal moisture
Match a gray hardtop or radar arch while adding ultra-low-light color video with the SIONYX Nightwave CRV-500C in Gray. Its 44° fixed field of view and Black Silicon XQE-1350 sensor are designed to capture usable color imagery in starlight conditions, helping operators monitor a bow approach, dock, shoreline, or nearby activity after dark. Need a low-power camera with more than one viewing option? The CRV-500C supports NTSC analog video, USB-C video, and Wi-Fi streaming in a compact IP67 housing.
Integration
The CRV-500C is a fixed low-light camera, not a radar, chartplotter, GPS receiver, thermal camera, NMEA 2000 device, or IP/ONVIF camera. Connect it to a compatible analog monitor or MFD through NTSC video, a compatible USB-C video device, or supported Wi-Fi/mobile application depending on the selected use.
Published approximate observation distances of 500 ft for a person under quarter-moon conditions and 1,300 ft for a vessel are situational estimates, not guaranteed detection or identification ranges. Ambient light, rain, fog, spray, target contrast, glare, lens condition, mounting height, and camera direction affect results.
Before Ordering
Confirm the required NTSC, USB-C, or Wi-Fi viewing method, display/app compatibility, 12V or USB power source, gray-housing preference, fixed camera location, field-of-view suitability, and required cable or adapter connections before ordering.
