Connect Link
Smart Connect Link is a device
interoperability standard dened
by Philips that oers integration
between external peripheral (TV box,
smart devices, etc) and Philips’s car
entertainment system. Smart Connect
Link brings the attached peripheral’s
function into the application platform
of the Philips car entertainment system
where apps are still hosted and running
on the external peripheral. Drivers
and passengers can interact with the
external peripheral through the touch
screen of Phillips car entertainment
system.
Smart Connect Link uses generic
RGB video signal standard to enable
the display of the user interface from
external peripheral application on
Philips car entertainment system and
utilizes Bluetooth HID prole protocol
standard to communicate user input
back to the peripheral.
Contact your dealer for the Smart
Connect Link compatible devices to
enrich your entertainment experience.
