Simply make a point_camera, name it something, then make an info_camera_link (I believe that is the name, I can't check right now), and a brush with a dev_monitor texture (just filter monitor..)
Tell the info camera link which camera to use, and then select a brushface with a monitor texture on it so show what the camera is viewing.
DONE.

I believe it is that simple, but I do not have hammer here so i can't check it out.

However, I have made this example which shows that and some other things...

Oh, right, CSS.
I'm not familiar with the CSS camera.
But Im sure Devshot_camera is not it.

You'll need to use a custom FGD for Hammer CSS which contains the entity you need. Google for it.
