Introduction

The Swann Black Knight Camera allows you to transmit pictures and sound with ease. As the radio waves it uses have a frequency of 2.4GHz, they can be received within a radius of up to 330ft/100 m in open line of sight. The Black Knight Camera Receiver works with other Swann cameras to allow you to have the option of using different frequencies for different locations and conditions to ensure that you have the best possible image quality for your situation. We suggest the Night Hawk Extra Camera (SW-P- WOCEX) which is a Wireless Weatherproof Outdoor Camera with Night Vision or the MicroCam IV (SW- P-MC4) Indoor Color Camera. Both of these camera models have DIP switches to allow them to use of any of the other available channels on your Black Knight receiver.

Please note: The Swann Black Knight Camera broadcasts video in the public domain. The video signal is not encrypted and could potentially be viewed by anyone with a similar 2.4GHz receiver unit. Please keep this in mind when positioning and using any wireless camera equipment.
