Active car and indoor holder Brodit 727381 for mobile phone/smartphone, black

Brodit 727381 is an active holder for mobile phones and smartphones designed for in-vehicle and indoor installation. The unit provides a discreet, cable-free appearance inside the dashboard while delivering power to compatible devices via built-in contacts. You can use the holder solely as a charging dock or connect an adapter to the Molex connector to supply power to a GPS receiver or other custom power-only solutions; it does not support data communication or audio connections. The holder is manufactured from high-grade black ABS/acetal plastic and includes a tilt-swivel mechanism for flexible viewing angles. Professional installation is recommended.

Advantages

The holder mounts neatly inside the dashboard for a clean installation without loose cables and includes a built-in charger that supports 12/24 V vehicle systems. An easy-switching system with a 6-pin Molex quick connector lets you replace the holder without redoing the installed cabling, which speeds upgrades and service. The tilt-swivel allows 17° tilt and 360° rotation so you can switch between portrait and landscape viewing. The unit is made in Sweden and uses a secure screw-mount plate.

Suitable for

• Mounting mobile phones and smartphones in cars or indoor dashboards
• Charging devices that accept power via device-specific contacts
• Powering auxiliary equipment such as GPS receivers via the Molex power connector
• Installations where a discreet, flush-mounted holder is required

When it may not be suitable

This holder provides power-only connectivity and cannot be used for data transfer or audio connections. Models that require USB data, audio passthrough, or other communication interfaces are not supported by this product. Also, professional installation is recommended; do-it-yourself fits may not be suitable if you cannot safely access dashboard wiring or fit the mounting plate.

How to use

Install the holder onto a compatible ProClip mounting platform or a pedestal mount using the screw-mount plate. Connect the vehicle power cable to the holder and protect the circuit with the recommended fuse (follow the product instructions regarding 2 A or 3 A fuse ratings). If you plan to power additional equipment, attach an appropriate adapter to the Molex connector; only power supply is supported through that connector. To replace the holder while keeping existing wiring, disconnect the holder from the 6-pin Molex quick connector and attach the new holder — the easy-switching system completes this change in seconds. Adjust tilt and swivel for optimal viewing.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your phone model is compatible with power/contact charging via Brodit device-specific holders
• Confirm you only require power (no data or audio connections) from the holder
• Ensure your vehicle wiring can be accessed for professional installation and that a suitable mounting platform (ProClip or pedestal) is available
• Plan to use the recommended fuse rating and a qualified installer if unsure about vehicle electrical work

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, use the holder with the specified fuse rating, follow professional installation guidance, and keep the Molex quick connector accessible for straightforward upgrades or replacement of the holder.
