ATD CAA-13169 Fakra To Fakra Fused Amplified Aerial Adaptor (Booster For Aftermarket)

MAIN FEATURES

This adapter is required when replacing a factory radio with an aftermarket unit that does not support the vehicle’s diversity antenna system. Commonly used in modern VW, Audi, and other VAG vehicles, the original head unit features an integrated aerial booster and a Twin Fakra connector. To maintain proper signal amplification, the adapter’s blue wire must be connected to the blue power antenna wire on the new radio, which supplies +12V when the unit is powered on.

Diversity antenna systems use two separate aerials positioned at different points on the vehicle to improve FM signal reception. The system automatically selects the stronger signal source, reducing static, dropouts, and interference caused by urban obstructions like buildings, traffic lights, and power lines. This ensures clearer audio, especially when stationary or driving through areas with fluctuating signal strength

KEY ATTRIBUTES:

• Converts Car Specific Antenna Connector To An Universal Aftermarket Connector
• High Impact ABS Plastic Mould Provides The Perfect Fit
• New GSXL Wire Means It's Flexible, Handles More Power & It's Heat Resistant
• OEM Quality Terminals
• OEM-Style Connection Design

PLEASE NOTE:

There are different types of Fakra aerial adaptors on VAG applications. This adaptor is for the twin and single fakra connectors and incompatible with OEM radios.
