Application of FAKRA cables in the automotive industry

FAKRA cables are widely used in the automotive industry, mainly including the following aspects:

Car navigation system: connected to GPS antenna, providing accurate positioning information for the vehicle, ensuring accurate operation of the navigation system, and helping drivers accurately plan routes and understand their current location.

Car entertainment system: used to connect antennas such as satellite radio and ground digital audio broadcasting, providing users with a rich source of audio programs and bringing high-quality auditory experience. It can also connect to the antenna of the car TV, allowing users to watch TV programs while the vehicle is stationary or in motion (if safety permits), enriching their travel entertainment.

Vehicle Communication System: Supports communication modules such as car phone, Wi Fi, LTE, etc., enabling voice communication and data transmission between the vehicle and the outside world, allowing drivers and passengers to maintain contact with the outside world and enjoy convenient communication services inside the vehicle. At the same time, it provides support for the vehicle networking function, enabling vehicles to communicate with other vehicles and infrastructure, realizing the reception and transmission of intelligent traffic information, such as real-time road condition information and traffic signal reminders.

Remote sensing and control systems: For example, in tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), FAKRA cables transmit signals from sensors inside the tires to the vehicle's central control system, allowing drivers to real-time understand tire pressure conditions and ensure driving safety. In the remote start system, responsible for transmitting relevant signals to achieve functions such as starting the vehicle and turning on the air conditioning through remote control.

Driver Assistance System (ADAS): The distance control radar transmits the detected distance information to the vehicle's control system through FAKRA cables, helping the vehicle achieve adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and other functions, improving driving safety and comfort. The reverse camera, surround view camera, etc. transmit the captured video signals to the in car display screen through FAKRA cables, providing clear images of the vehicle's rear or surrounding environment for drivers to assist with parking and driving.
