Aerpro SAFT01 Infolink Adapter Interface for Aftermarket Head Units
Steering Wheel Control & Factory Reverse Camera Interface for Aftermarket Stereo Upgrades
Upgrade your compatible vehicle with a modern aftermarket head unit while retaining important factory functions with the Aerpro SAFT01 Infolink Adapter Interface.
The SAFT01 is designed to do more than connect the factory steering wheel controls to an aftermarket stereo. It provides access to supported vehicle menus and system information through the replacement head unit, helping retain functionality that may otherwise be lost when the factory radio is removed.
The interface also supports the factory reverse camera, if equipped, and provides essential reverse trigger, park brake and speed pulse outputs for aftermarket head unit installation.
Available from Strathfield Car Radios, the Aerpro SAFT01 can be purchased online or in-store and professionally installed as part of a complete car stereo upgrade, head unit replacement, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto installation.
Upgrade Your Factory Stereo Without Losing Steering Wheel Controls
Replacing a factory head unit with an aftermarket touchscreen can provide modern smartphone connectivity, improved audio control and additional features, but maintaining factory vehicle integration is an important part of the installation.
The SAFT01 allows compatible factory steering wheel controls to continue operating with a compatible aftermarket head unit.
It provides:
-
Factory steering wheel control retention
-
Phone button compatibility
-
Voice assistant button support
-
Vehicle menu access
-
Factory reverse camera retention
-
Reverse trigger output
-
Park brake output
-
Speed pulse output
-
Illumination output
-
PAL/NTSC camera detection
-
Selectable dipswitch configuration
-
Software update capability
The aftermarket head unit must be SWC compatible, and steering wheel control functions may vary from the original OEM functions.
Retain Your Factory Reverse Camera
One of the key advantages of the Aerpro SAFT01 is its ability to retain the factory reverse camera, where the vehicle is equipped with one.
The interface automatically detects PAL/NTSC reverse camera input, helping simplify the setup when installing the replacement aftermarket head unit.
The new head unit must have a rear camera input.
Important Camera Compatibility
The SAFT01 is not compatible with high-definition cameras.
This is important when planning a camera or head unit upgrade. The interface is designed for compatible factory reverse camera systems rather than high-definition camera installations.
CarPlay & Android Auto Head Unit Upgrade
The SAFT01 can be installed with a compatible aftermarket Pioneer, Kenwood, Alpine, JVC, Sony or other SWC-compatible head unit to modernise the vehicle's factory multimedia system.
Depending on the head unit selected, an upgrade can provide:
-
Apple CarPlay
-
Android Auto
-
Wireless smartphone connectivity
-
Bluetooth hands-free calling
-
Bluetooth audio streaming
-
Touchscreen multimedia
-
Smartphone navigation
-
DAB+ digital radio where supported
-
Modern audio controls
The SAFT01 provides the vehicle integration required to help retain supported factory functions while upgrading to a modern aftermarket stereo.
Vehicle Menu Integration
The SAFT01 provides on-screen access to supported vehicle menus and settings through the aftermarket head unit.
This allows the replacement stereo to become more integrated with the vehicle rather than operating as a completely separate aftermarket system.
For customers completing a car stereo replacement, Apple CarPlay upgrade or Android Auto head unit installation, retaining access to vehicle information can make the upgrade substantially more practical.
Steering Wheel Controls & Voice Assistant Support
The SAFT01 supports compatible factory steering wheel controls, allowing the driver to continue operating supported head unit functions from the steering wheel.
The interface supports:
-
Steering wheel controls
-
Factory phone button
-
Voice assistant button
-
Compatible aftermarket SWC functions
The aftermarket head unit must support steering wheel control functionality, and individual functions may differ from those provided by the original factory radio.
Selectable Dipswitch Configuration
The SAFT01 uses selectable dipswitch settings to configure the interface for the appropriate vehicle and aftermarket head unit application.
Correct dipswitch configuration is important for proper operation.
If the vehicle's odometer is flashing after installation, the dipswitch configuration should be adjusted to select the correct setting. Refer to the SAFT01 installation instructions for the complete dipswitch configuration.
The interface is also software updateable, helping maintain compatibility and performance over time.
Multi-language support includes:
-
English
-
German
-
Spanish
-
Italian
