The Yakima HoldUp 2-Bike Rack for 2" Hitches # Y02443 will not interfere with the backup camera of your 2019 Ford Edge when there are no bikes on the rack and the arms are folded down (like in the accompanying photo). With the arms up and bikes on, it is very likely to interfere with the back up camera, though this is going to be true of any bike rack for your Edge.

If you need a hitch for your Edge to carry this rack I recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75234.

I have added a link to a video install of the hitch for you to check out as well as a link to a video review of the Yakima HoldUp 2-Bike Rack for 2" Hitches # Y02443.
