Please note that this product has reached end of life and in2digi no longer supplies this item. We now recommend the D-MB-2 for new installs on NTG2.5/NTG3/NTG4/NTG4-W212/NTG4.5 vehicles.
The D-MB-1 is a DAB and DAB+ system for Mercedes Benz vehicles. It supports the NTG1, NTG2 platforms where it emulates the CD changer, so the CD-changer must be bypassed or disconnected. For NTG2.5 cars and later it behaves like the factory option tuner would except it supports DAB+ as-well.
The D-MB-1 should be used for NTG1 and NTG2 vehicles, emulating the CD Changer.

DAB and DAB+ Band III Support
Digital “all the way” from transmitter to amplifier. (no internal analogue connection)
DLS Support where head unit supports it
5V Phantom Fed antenna
