Default Is this A brake controller

Hi All,
New Jeep so a million questions.

I was looking to install a trailer brake controler, pulled off the cover under the dash and found this.
Pretty sure it is a controler ??

Anyone know the make?

Don’t know about the BMW bit but it is a pedal box - type of throttle controller.

Thanks Fishframe,
I have never heard of them before.
I just thought the Jeep was a rocket

So the reason I was under the dash in the first place was I was looking for the Brake controller plug mentioned in several videos.
I have an AUS 2011 CRD overlander with a 3500Kg towbar and 7 pin wiring but no brake controler that I can find. I wondering if the AUS versions have the wiring reversed or totally different.

The export models don't get the pig tail wiring for the brake controller, only the US models. Went through the same thing with a 2010 Wrangler then 2015 KL Cherokee then for shits n giggles looked into it on the WK2 too.

Cheers Guys,
I have since found a few post mentioning the lack of connector.

I checked the 7 pin trailor connector and found the Blue wire pin 5 was there.
Most posts suggest it ends on the left side near the torch a couple say pasanger side front kick panel.

Any comments ??
