Alpine KCU-471i

If your iPod or iPhone has a Lightning connector, this handy 8-inch long cable will connect your Apple device to your compatible Alpine car stereo, so you can leave the cable that came with your iPod in the house. This cable supports audio playback and charging — it will not transfer video to your receiver. Warranty: 1 year.

Q
Does this cable do anything differently than a standard Apple cable? Or is it just a shorter version?

A
shorter version
robert  Dec 31, 2015
A
It's just shorter. It's a good quality cable though. I haven't had any trouble with it.
kenneth  Dec 31, 2015
Q
Will the KCU-471i work with ida x100? (The standard 30 pin cable with apple lightning adaptor does work).
david  Nov 02, 2015

A
Sorry, no. Apple changed the functions of the pins in the 30 pin Apple dock connector prior to the release of the Lightning connector but after the release of the Alpine X100 so, any newer Apple products that feature the Lightning connector will not be recognized by the X100; even with this adapter. I'm sorry I don't have better news for you there.

I am using it to play music on my 154BT it works fine. When you first use it. The system may not recognize it at first. Just unplug it wait a few seconds and plug it back in. It may ask you to configure your phone to the system mine did. After that your on your way.

Does not work with 6 Plus and Alpine ida-x100 Returns USB error Alpine support told me operating system can not be upgraded to solve this problem (such as attaching a USB thumb drive with an update)
james  Mar 25, 2015

I play music through this cable every day.It's the same cable that comes with your Apple but shorter.

Q
Will this cable work with the alpine Ida x305s ?
chris  Dec 04, 2014

A
We don't show this cable as being compatible. However, you should be able to use the 30-pin connector that came with the receiver and 30-pin to lightning adapter.

Q
Does this cable work with the alpine UTE 52BT head unit?
thomas  Nov 08, 2014

A
I forwarded your question to an Advisor and they responded with the following: Yes, this cable will work with the Alpine UTE-52BT. It will work with any Apple device that uses a lightning connector. If you would like to discuss further you can contact an Advisor directly by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat.
