SMSC's MOST multimedia networking technology has been selected as part of the infotainment system for the recently introduced 2006 Mercedes-Benz R-Class sports tourer vehicle. MOST is the standard network for the infotainment systems across the full range of Mercedes-Benz volume platforms. MOST multimedia technology enables the networking of feature-rich infotainment systems in automobiles by providing the means to distribute multimedia entertainment functions among the various control devices around the car.

For example, a CD changer, radio, global positioning system, mobile telephone and DVD player can be established in an efficient ring network and can send crisp, static-free audio signals digitally to the amplifier by using the MOST network.
