Dear to All,

I've integrated an Apple TV 4th generation in a fully empty Imac, in order to createa real TV + apple TV built in.

I've managed to power up the apple TV, plug the HDMI to a screen controller and everything works.

And there is one remaining thing, it's the antennas of the Apple TV, because inside of an Imac, it doesn't works very well about the bluetooth for remote control, and wifi for internet.

The idea is to re use the antenna of the Imac ( 4 different ones, 2 Bluetooth & 2 wifi in it), in order to connect them to the apple TV, with extension wire.

I found out Two antenna connectors on the Apple TV motherboard, but they're a little bit smaller than in the imac. see here - > above the orange chip, the two circle connectors




So I need help to know these connectors on the Apple TV, their size and type of connector ? (found out that the one in the Imac are u.fl / ipx 1.13)

And I need also to know if you know which antenna is for wifi or Bluetooth ?

Is there any chance to make them works with adaptor between Apple TV and the imac antenna ?

Thank you for your help
