What's an Antenna regulator and do I need it?

Hi All,


I have a 2006 X5 and am lucky enough to have an antenna regulator (6945425) connected to the Bluetooth.


Well.... I say connected, I actually broke the Fakra connection when changing out the TCU.


Question is,... what does it actually do and do I need to get a new lead (£25±) to connect it?


Here's one on eBay if you've never seen one before:

.....the bloke selling it doesn't know what it does either!

Cheers

it shows to be Euro part only - seems like it is taking one antenna input and splits it (probably an active splitter, a one using 12V for active components) for the TCU and the Mobile phone... i just saw it to be listed for 300 euros somewhere!!! wow!!

not installed in the US, and folks in the US probably have no idea... lets hope that somebody in Europe can chime in
