How to Identify Your FedEx Camera System (AHD vs CVBS vs FHD)

Before troubleshooting or ordering replacement parts for your FedEx P&D vehicle, it's important to know which type of camera system you have. Using incompatible cameras, cables, or monitors can cause issues like "No Signal" or poor image quality.

Step 1 — Check Your Part Number

Look at the label on your monitor, camera, or product box.

AHD systems typically include:

  • "AHD" in the model name (example: PD-775R-AHD)
  • A part number ending in "-AHD" or "-1"

FHD systems typically include:

  • "FHD" or "CA" in the model name

Standard CVBS systems:

  • Usually do NOT include AHD or FHD in the model name
  • If there is no signal type in the model name, it is likely a standard CVBS system

Step 2 — Check Your Cable and Connector Type

Most FedEx P&D camera systems use a 4-pin round connector. These connectors look identical across all three signal types.

Important: Just because the connector fits does NOT mean the camera and monitor are compatible. AHD, CVBS, and FHD systems all use the same connector style but are NOT interchangeable.

Step 3 — Check Your Monitor Compatibility

Your monitor determines what cameras will work with your system.

Monitor Type Compatible Cameras
CVBS monitor CVBS cameras only
AHD monitor AHD cameras only
FHD monitor FHD, AHD, and CVBS cameras

 

Common Compatibility Issues

Combination Result
AHD camera + CVBS monitor No Signal
FHD camera + non-FHD monitor No Signal
Mixing different signal types No image or poor image quality

 

Step 4 — Use the Connection Diagrams

The FedEx P&D Connection Diagrams PDF shows the correct wiring configurations for common FedEx vehicle setups. Use it to:

  • Confirm your connections are correct
  • Identify mismatched components
  • Troubleshoot wiring issues
