02. CLK 430 convertible W208
Radio swap to a command/navigation center system

I want to swap out a factory cassette radio from a 02 clk 430 w208 with a factory nav command system in my CLK 430 W208?
​​What is the fiber optic cable to?
Can i get a adapter or leave it alone?
Will the system be functioning properly?
