CARLINKIT MINI ULTRA Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto Adapter, Black

The Carlinkit Mini Ultra Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto Adapter is a wireless adapter designed to convert a vehicle's factory-wired CarPlay or Android Auto system into a cable-free connection. It establishes a direct link to the car's built-in USB-A interface, giving access to the existing touchscreen, steering-wheel controls, and voice-control functions without physically attaching a phone. It draws 0.75 W of power at 5 V from the vehicle's USB port to maintain operation. This plug-and-play device requires no separate battery or external power source. It is strictly compatible with vehicles that already have factory-installed wired Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.

The adapter features a compact housing made from ABS and PC plastic to minimise space usage in the cabin. It relies entirely on the vehicle's USB port for power during operation. A USB-to-USB-C adapter is included to accommodate different types of in-car USB ports during installation. Setup operates on a plug-and-play basis, supporting automatic reconnection when the vehicle starts after the initial pairing sequence. Compatibility extends to iPhone 6 and newer models running iOS 10 or later, alongside Android phones operating on Android 11 or newer.
