Main features

• 11-inch WXGA HD Display - The super-large, 11-inch WXGA touchscreen display has a resolution of 1280 x 720p and contains more than 2.7 million pixel elements - making icons, menus and visual content on your dashboard extremely sharp and vivid. The screen is attached to an adjustable bracket attached to the vehicle's radio dock, leaving a free 1DIN pocket underneath to store smaller items.
• Wireless Apple CarPlay - The iLX-F115T6 "works with Apple CarPlay" wirelessly, allowing iPhone users to make and receive calls, access and write text messages, play music and get directions so they can focus on the road. Apple CarPlay is accessible via the capacitive touchscreen or the microphone button to activate Siri voice control. Thanks to the WiFi connection, you can keep your iPhone in your pocket and not have to plug it in all the time (except for charging).
• Drive-Assist cameras - a reversing camera is a great way to ensure safer reversing. The camera image automatically turns on when you put the gear into reverse, and distance guides appear on the screen, which can be adjusted to match the size of your car, so you can park your car safely.
• Wide options for entertainment and online navigation - the brand new DAB / radio tuner enables DAB - FM switching and allows you to enjoy smooth radio reception without interruption. In addition to the extended USB video playback formats (MP4, MOV, FLV, MKV), the Alpine Halo 11 offers many other entertainment options: the built-in Bluetooth module allows audio streaming from the phone, and the HDMI input allows the connection of an external device for video playback. You can of course use Android Auto with any compatible Android smartphone (wired connection).
• The world's first head unit with a built-in Class D amplifier - the iLX-F115T6 is the world's first aftermarket head unit to feature a built-in 4x 50 W Class D amplifier - enabling excellent high-end sound reproduction with highly reduced noise or phase shift. A key advantage of Class D amplification technology is its high efficiency of around 90% compared to 50-70% of Class AB amplifiers. New high-speed fans with internal heatsinks keep your Alpine Halo 11 cool - and playing music.
• Enjoy excellent sound quality - thanks to the 56-band parametric EQ in advanced mode, 2-band digital X-over, 6-channel digital time correction and several Bass Engine SQ and MediaXpander sound tuning options, you have excellent tools for tuning your Alpine Halo 11 and connected amplifier / speaker system to perfection. But we don't stop there: Alpine Halo 11 is Hi-Res Audio certified and can decode and play Hi-Res Audio files up to 96kHz / 1.536kbps from USB sources in uncompressed supported formats such as FLAC, WAV and APE.
• Freely adjustable viewing angle - You can adjust the viewing angle of the iLX-F115T6 from +45 degrees to -20 degrees to match a wide range of dashboard angles. You can freely adjust the viewing angle at any time to achieve the best visibility and prevent glare from sunlight.
• Adjustable height and distance of the display - the height of the display can be adjusted +/- 3 cm from the center position. This allows for full-standing or hanging display configurations, as well as everything in between. You can also adjust the distance between the display and the instrument panel in the range of 20 mm. After selecting the height of the display and the distance to the dashboard, everything locks into place.
• Retains the visual representation of the climate control display and parking sensors - the head unit gives you visual feedback for the driver and front passenger's selected temperature, climate status, seat heating level, selected air vents and more. This screen automatically appears for a few seconds when any of the named settings are changed to provide feedback to the driver. If your car is equipped with original parking sensors, you can continue to use this convenient feature when you upgrade to Alpine. The parking sensor system is connected to the Alpine screen and displays a convenient distance display.
• It supports the basic functions of the original control buttons on the steering wheel - the Alpine system is connected to the control buttons on the steering wheel. This means you won't lose this convenient feature when you upgrade to Alpine, and you'll have control over volume, phone (hang up/off), audio track forward/reverse and many more commands. If you have an iPhone connected to the system, you can even activate Siri voice control - directly from the steering wheel.
• It retains the driver's information display - the small display in the instrument cluster is also linked to the Alpine system and can display radio station names, track titles and artist information, caller names and much more.
• Including installation kit for Volkswagen T6 - iLX-F115T6 includes a custom-made 1DIN frame, cable harness with CAN interface and antenna adapter. The CAN interface allows the use of remote control buttons on the steering wheel with the Halo11.
