The antenna concept
Four antenna equipment alternatives are currently available for the Golf Plus:
- Roof antenna and rear window with an antenna structure without connection option,
- Roof antenna and rear window with an antenna structure and one connection option,
- Roof antenna and rear window with two antenna structures and one connection option, and
- Roof antenna and rear window with two antenna structures and two connection options.
A rod or tri-band antenna may be fitted as the roof antenna.
Roof antenna and rear window with an antenna
structure without connection option
If this equipment is fitted, e.g. radio R100 is connected
to the roof antenna. As in the case of the variant
"without radio", the integrated rear window antenna
has no connection option, with the result that a
telephone, navigation and telestart cannot be
implemented with this version.
Roof antenna and rear window with an
antenna structure and one connection option
Both antennae are used by one radio (as of RCD 300)
to exploit the advantages of antenna diversity.
This means that, thanks to an integrated diversity
switch, the radio automatically uses the antenna with
the stronger input signal.
Telephone, navigation and telestart are not available
in this case.
