DELPHI OFFERS HUB FOR CONNECTING MULTIPLE VEHICLE SYSTEMS AND CONSUMER INTERFACES

Options Are Virtually Unlimited with Number and Variety of Interfaces Available

TROY, Mich. - Fulfilling consumers' insatiable demand for an ever-increasing array of entertainment and communication options in their vehicles, Delphi Corp. (PINKSHEETS: DPHIQ) offers a hub to accommodate multiple vehicle systems or consumer interfaces.

 "A single USB port that serves as an interface between the vehicle's electrical system and external consumer equipment enabling passengers to download MP3 music files from pen-drives and iPods and listen to music files stored on those devices through the vehicle's audio system may not satisfy all passengers," says John Yurtin, Connection Systems Component Specialist, Delphi Electrical/Electronic Architecture.

"Some passengers might want to play video games, look at pictures stored on photo cards or listen to music through headphones without bothering other passengers. Delphi makes this possible with a hub that allows automakers to locate a variety of consumer interfaces - standard USB ports for iPods and MP3 players, video and audio jacks for games, DVD players or camcorders, or SD slots for photo cards - throughout the vehicle."

With Delphi data connectivity systems the options are virtually unlimited. Automakers determine the number, locations and variety of consumer interfaces included in the vehicle. Interfaces are typically on the dashboard, inside the glove box, on the console or in the rear seat passenger compartment.

Delphi's E/EA engineers help automakers ensure the reliability and viability of these consumer interfaces with innovative solutions for sending high-speed data throughout the vehicle while minimizing EMI (electro-magnetic interference).

Multiple consumer interfaces can accommodate audio/video, telematics and global positioning exchange data. They are USCAR-30 compliant and all Delphi consumer interfaces employ industry standard I/O interfaces used to connect peripheral devices to computers.

Delphi's hub design approach is focused on offering a low-cost solution designed specifically for the automotive environment and is also engineered for easy installation in the assembly plant, Yurtin says.

 "Sophisticated features that Delphi's multiple consumer interfaces provide create a competitive advantage for our customers, who are continually challenged by their customers - consumers who want more convenience and personalization in their vehicles," observes Majdi Abulaban, product business unit director, Delphi Connection Systems. "Delphi is focused on bringing new technologies, such as multiple consumer interfaces and all of the variety and convenience they provide, to market to help our customers distinguish themselves from their competition."

Delphi's consumer ports are standard equipment on several makes and models of automobiles; hubs to accommodate multiple ports or connection of multiple vehicle systems are in development targeted for model year 2010.
