Application
Automotive Infotainment
TE's technologies are focused on consumer port applications, board-to-board connections, vehicle-to-vehicle communication, and next-generation harness architecture. Our infotainment products provide the next generation of connected vehicles with fast, reliable, and responsive connectivity solutions.
Infotainment links have high-performance requirements for high data rates and time-synchronous data streams on multiple devices. Consequently, appropriate links must be designed for optimal signal integrity properties at high frequencies. Typically, infotainment links are used as point-to-point connections (e.g. display links for high resolution dashboards, control panels or HUDs, and in a ring bus configuration). In the future, open protocols, such as audio-video bridging (AVB), might also enable the implementation of automotive network topologies. They would ensure that multiple data streams are made available in a timely basis across different devices. TE offers connector solutions to support automotive infotainment applications; typical applications and featured TE products include:
Infotainment Cluster
Infotainment clusters provide a centralized instrumentation dashboard for the vehicle's infotainment functions such as in-car entertainment (ICE) and in-vehicle infotainment (IVI).

MATEnet Modular and Scalable Connectors
TE plays a major role in connecting critical electronic vehicle networks that enable transmission of data from sensors and systems. TE’s MATEnet modular and scalable connectors have been able to show a data transmission rate of 100 Mbit/s and 1 Gbit/s according to IEEE 100BASE-T1/1000BASE-T1. This can be achieved with standard automotive connectors based on TE’s miniaturized NanoMQS termination system in combination with unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable.

Fiber Optic Connections for MOST Networks
We offer a broad product range of physical layer components for devices communicating on Media Oriented System Transport (MOST) network. TE Connectivity’s (TE) fiber optics provide a complete range of components for MOST 25 and MOST 150 connectors including PCB and harness connectors, cable assemblies and processing equipment. The development of these components is backed by TE’s knowledge of optics and collaboration with Tier 1 and Tier 2 customers. TE developed an optical high speed multimedia network based on 1000 μm polymere optical fiber (POF) supporting data-speed of 25 Mbps and 150 Mbps.
