The iLX-F115DU Alpine Halo11 for Fiat Ducato 3, Peugeot Boxer 2, Citroen Jumper 2 and other vans, pick-ups, motorhomes is the second generation of Alpine's world-renowned Halo product line, featuring an 11-inch high-resolution WXGA touch screen and it comes with all the necessary installation parts (such as plug-and-play wiring harness, CAN interface, frame, etc.) for the Ducato 3. The super-slim display seems to simply float above the dashboard and can be adjusted to the best position in various ways . Enjoy Apple CarPlay and Android Auto (wired) wireless compatibility, DAB+ digital radio, USB video playback, HD audio playback, Bluetooth hands-free and audio streaming and much more with this amazing head unit. You can choose from a wide range of online navigation apps, such as Google Maps, and use them on the Alpine screen via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Bring exceptionally good sound quality to your vehicle: the Alpine Halo11 is the world's first head unit with a built-in Class D amplifier and has a wide range of professional sound tuning features such as 2-band X-overs, parametric EQ, 6-volt preamps, digital time correction and much more.

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-F115DU "works with Apple CarPlay" wirelessly, allowing iPhone users to make and receive calls, access and write text messages, play music and get directions in a way that allows them to 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).
Simple control from the steering wheel - if your Ducato is equipped with steering wheel control buttons, you can also use them with the iLX-F115DU. Alpine's system is fully integrated with the vehicle's electronics and accepts all driving controls such as volume, telephone, voice control and mute.
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 video playback device. 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-F115DU 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.
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 Ducato, so you can safely park your motorhome.
External Wireless Controller - The separately available RUE-BK01 control knob connects wirelessly to the Alpine Halo 11 and can be installed on the left or right side of the touch screen. Alternatively, you can also place the control knob anywhere else in the vehicle with a simple DIY installation. Turning the knob adjusts the head unit's volume output, while pressing it activates the rear camera on the screen. Note: This control knob has no function when wireless Apple CarPlay is active.
Freely adjustable viewing angle - you can adjust the viewing angle of the iLX-F115DU 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.
Pre-drive inspection - most damage to motorhomes occurs because the vehicle was not fully prepared for use. Alpine's on-screen control can be fully customized to your vehicle and will remind you before you start driving to make sure the throttle is off, all tables and doors are locked, satellite dishes are retracted, etc.
Including custom frame and mounting brackets for Fiat Ducato 3 and related caravans - iLX-F115DU includes custom frame, installation brackets, CAN interface wiring harness and antenna adapter. The CAN interface retains the use of remote control buttons on the steering wheel.

Car radio sizeCar radios are divided into 2 basic sizes, 1DIN car radios and 2DIN car radios . 1DIN size car radios - the exact dimensions including the metal frame where the car radio is inserted are 184 x 53 mm, the external dimensions of the branded 1DIN car radio are 188 x 59 mm. We know 2DIN car radios from newer vehicles, a classic example is the VW Golf IV with navigation. The dimensions of a 2DIN car radio without a metal frame are 180 x 101 mm, the external dimensions of a branded 2DIN car radio are 189 x 119 mm.	1DIN
Car radio performanceThe performance of the car radio shown in maximum values. This is therefore the MAX value. The performance of the internal amplifier of the car radio. Today, the RMS power of a car radio ranges from 17 - 30 W RMS per channel.	4 x 50 W
Supported formats via USB inputList of all supported formats (MP3, AAC, Flac, DivX, etc.) that the car radio can play via USB input.	FLAC/MP3/WMA/AAC
USB inputThe USB input of the car radio is used to connect a USB flash drive or smartphone. Today, playing music via USB is the most popular way to listen to music in the car. The USB input can be front (on the front panel of the car radio) or rear (on the back of the cable).	Yes (rear input)
CD driveCar radios with CD drive. Car radios that have an input slot for inserting a CD.	No
SD card accessModern branded car radios can play SDHC SD cards up to 32 GB, sometimes even 64 GB. The SD card slot is behind the front panel in most car radios.	No
DVD driveDVD ("Digital Versatile Disc" or "Digital Video Disc") is a digital optical data carrier format that can contain movies or various other data. Car radios with a DVD drive can also play classic CD discs, and the car radio always has a slot for only one disc, the CD drive and the DVD drive are always in one.	No
HDMI / MHLHDMI stands for High-Definition Multi-media Interface, an uncompressed video and audio signal in digital format. HDMI supports video transmission in standard, enhanced or high-definition quality, and up to 8-channel digital audio. Mobile High-definition Link (MHL) is an industry norm and standard for a mobile multimedia (audio/video) interface that allows you to connect a smartphone, tablet and other portable electronic devices to car stereos with high definition image and sound. The MHL standard supports video up to full HD 1080p/60 and audio with 7.1 channels.	Yes / No
Integrated BluetoothBluetooth is a communication technology used for wireless connection between two or more electronic devices. A mobile phone, for example, can be connected to a car radio with built-in Bluetooth. Most car radios for 2017 and later can also wirelessly stream (play) music via Bluetooth -> A2DP function.	Yes
Audio Streaming via BluetoothA2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) is a Bluetooth profile that enables the wireless transmission of stereo audio from an A2DP source, typically a mobile phone or computer, to an A2DP receiver (car radio). These devices usually also support the AVRCP profile.	Yes
Maximum number of registered phones in the car radioCar radios allowing the registration of multiple mobile phones. It is then possible to choose between the registered phones.	4
External microphone included in the packageThe external microphone is connected from the back of the car radio to the input marked "MIC". For ideal sound quality during a phone call, we recommend placing the external microphone on the left "A" pillar at the point where the "A" pillar and the roof panel connect to each other. A very good position to place an external microphone is also near the central rear-view mirror.	Yes
Number of RCA outputsRCA outputs , colloquially called "cinches", are used to connect an external amplifier or active subwoofer. Aftermarket car radios are usually equipped with 1 to 3 pairs of RCA outputs. FRONT, REAR and SUB are used. It also depends on how many volt outputs the car radio is equipped with. More basic models of car radios have 2V outputs, more expensive units have 4V and more. The higher the specified value, the less power demands are placed on the external amplifier and the sound quality increases.	3 pairs
Output level on RCAAn important parameter if you are going to install an external amplifier. If you purchase a car radio with a basic value, i.e. 2V outputs, then greater demands will be placed on the power of the amplifier. As the value increases, e.g. 4V or 5V, the power of the external amplifier increases significantly, in layman's terms. A car radio with strong outputs therefore has the advantage that you do not pull so much power through the amplifier and thus achieve a better sound, as external amplifiers lose control at higher loads.	4 V
Made for Apple iPod & iPhoneWhen connecting an Apple device to the car radio, music applications can be controlled using the car radio itself, i.e. basic common functions.	Yes
Apple CarPlayApple CarPlay is a completely new option for connecting a smartphone to a car radio that has the Apple CarPlay function. The connection is only by cable, thanks to the high data flow. You click on the Apple CarPlay icon on the car radio screen and application icons appear on the car radio screen like on a smartphone, and you can continue to control everything using the car radio. It also works with voice control and Siri.	Yes
Works with Android OSAfter connecting a smartphone with the ANDROID operating system, the car radio can control music in the Android OS music player (Google Play, Spotify, etc.), so there is no need to pick up a mobile phone. You control the basic, common functions of the music application with the car radio itself.	Yes
Android AutoGoogle's Android Auto is a completely new option for connecting a smartphone to a car radio that has the Android Auto function. The connection is only by cable, thanks to the high data flow. The Android OS requirement is at least version 5.0. You click on the Android Auto icon on the car radio screen, and application icons appear on the car radio screen like on a smartphone, and you can continue to control everything using the car radio. Voice control and GPS signal also works.	Yes
Backlit buttonsColor options for the backlight of the car radio buttons.	White LEDs
DisplayAdditional information about the display. Segment, LCD, multi-line, etc.	11\" capacitive WVGA touch display
Loudness functionThe Loudness function pulls out certain frequencies and accentuates them with a higher volume. It is good to use Loudness at a low volume, we do not recommend turning on this function at a higher volume because the sound will not be balanced and in extreme cases you can even damage the speakers.	Yes
Bass boost functionBass boost or bass enhancement. With this function, the bass itself can be emphasized, at a high level of bass boost, the speakers and the subwoofer can distort a lot and the sound will be worse than better. We therefore recommend using the "bass boost" function wisely. With maximum use of bass boost, there is a risk of damage to the speakers and thus to the subwoofer.	Yes
Equalizer / DSP processorA basic or parametric equalizer allows you to adjust the sound at individual frequencies in finer steps. Using the DSP processor , you can set the time correction, connect the speakers actively (actively): without crossovers, set the location of the speakers and determine their size digitally.	Yes / No
Built-in DAB+ tunerIntegrated DAB+ (Digital Audio Broadcasting) digital FM tuner for reception of digital FM radio signal broadcasting. Before buying a car radio with a DAB+ tuner, we recommend checking whether the package includes a DAB+ antenna, without which you cannot receive digital broadcasts. This information is usually provided on the manufacturer's official website.	Yes
Direct subwoofer controlSubwoofer settings, where you can add or subtract the dB level, i.e. subtract or add bass according to the recording. Higher class car radios can also rotate the phase and other functions for perfect bass. Some car radios allow you to turn off the subwoofer completely, with a button in the car radio menu. This is a very useful feature if you have a subwoofer in your car.	Yes
Removable front panelPossibility to remove the entire front panel of the car radio by pressing the side button. A very effective weapon against car radio theft. We recommend not hiding the panel in the vehicle, but taking it with you. Alternatively, place the panel in a hidden place in the trunk, but not when leaving the car, but before parking. You never know when a thief might be watching you.	No
Remote control includedCard IR remote control of the car radio, thanks to which certain functions of the car radio incl. control the volume from the hand, remotely.	No
Possibility to purchase a wireless remote controlCar radios equipped with a sensor for IR remote control. Usually, the remote control does not need to be paired or set up, it works automatically. If your remote control does not work, we recommend checking the battery in the remote control.	Yes
Input for steering wheel button control adapterCar radios equipped with a cable input or a 3.5 Jack socket for an adapter to control the buttons on the steering wheel. Most branded car radios have this input, from the back of the car radio body.	Yes
Cable with ISO terminal included in the packageThere is usually a specific 12-18 pin connector on the back of the car radio itself, into which the reduction to standard ISO is connected. This cable is always included in the package of branded aftermarket car radios and has a length of 8 - 15 cm.	Yes
