Here are some antenna innards.
TCU Connectors - 2023 Maverick:
Roof Mounted Antenna
AM/FM1 Antenna
The AM / FM 1 antenna (also called the audio unit antenna) is integrated into the roof mounted antenna.
It receives AM / FM / DAB radio waves and sends them through the antenna amplifier to the ACM via the AM / FM 1 antenna coaxial cable.
GPS/Satellite Radio Antenna
The GPS /satellite radio antenna contains a GPS antenna circuit board that receives radio waves containing GPS and satellite radio data and is integrated into the roof mounted antenna. The data is sent through the GPS /satellite radio antenna coaxial cable to the APIM ( GPS data) and through a splitter (if equipped) to the ACM (satellite radio data).
Primary Cellular Antenna
If equipped, the GPS /satellite radio antenna contains a cellular antenna circuit board that receives radio waves containing cellular data. The data is sent through the cellular antenna coaxial cable to the TCU .
Secondary Cellular Antenna
The secondary cellular antenna boosts reception for incoming and outgoing cellular network data. It is a compact, cellular phone type, planar inverted-F antenna.
Vehicle Wi-Fi Hotspot (Vehicles Not Equipped With SYNC 3) (if equipped)
The TCU provides the vehicle Wi-Fi access point.
The TCU communicates to the cellular network by two means. The primary connection is through the cable to the primary cellular antenna incorporated into the roof mounted antenna. The secondary means is through the cable to the secondary cellular ( TCU ) antenna.
The primary means of communication between the TCU and the cellular network uses the primary cellular antenna integrated into the roof mounted antenna. A separate coaxial cable connects the cellular portion of the antenna to the TCU . The secondary means of communication between the TCU and the cellular network is the secondary cellular antenna. The secondary cellular antenna (located forward of the IPC ) connects to the TCU via a coaxial cable.
