When a customer has an UAG radio from factory, these UAG radios come with two USB ports on the rear of the radio. Black goes to the USB hub in the armrest and gray goes to the USB hub on the dash.
​

When a customer upgrades to a UAQ for example, the UAQ only has one USB port on its rear.
​

The customer will lose data connection from the USB hub in the armrest as they can only plug in their gray USB connection into the gray port on the rear of the UAQ. The USB hub in the armrest will still charge but will not allow any data to be transfered.
​

If the customer wants to use the armrest USB hub instead of the USB hub on the dash then they can trim the factory black USB connector to make it fit into the gray USB port on the rear of the new radio. This can be done with an exacto knife or flush cutters.
