Memphis MP66: The First Car Audio System with a USB port from Blaupunkt
Singapore, September 25, 2006 - With the inclusion of a USB port in its latest car audio system model, the Memphis MP66 from Blaupunkt, a Bosch subsidiary, opens up a new world of connection options for the car audio system market. The USB port allows for instant USB connectivity and enables users to connect and control USB devices, MP3 players and mobile hard-disk drives via the car audio system. This allows users to have an additional vast source of music to listen to, depending on their additional USB device connected. The USB device can be conveniently controlled via the car radio.
The Memphis MP66 comes with the latest USB 2.0 cable that can be easily installed in the glove compartment or console. Placing the USB port at the back of the radio unit, instead of the front, complies with the corresponding EU agreements. This demonstrates Blaupunkt’s competency in the field of technology for in-vehicle entertainment. This enhances safety because a USB device protruding from the front of the car audio system unit may endanger passengers in the event of an accident.
