Abstract
An electrical connectivity system for use in a vehicle includes a first plurality of electrical devices a first plurality of electrical devices coupled to at least one utility carrier and a control module coupled to the at least one utility carrier. The first plurality of electrical devices are configured to communicate a plurality of utilities on the at least one utility carrier. The control module is also coupled to a second plurality of electrical devices and is configured to control the selection and distribution of the plurality of utilities to the second plurality of electrical devices. The control module includes a user interface configured to receive user input commands regarding the selection of utilities distributed to the second plurality of electrical devices. The control module and second plurality of electrical devices may be mounted to a modular system in the vehicle.
