That's the prewiring for the TCU unit to integrate bluetooth/BMW Assist. Mine had 4 antenna connections: GPS, Cell Phone, Bluetooth, and backup cell antenna (which doesn't need connecting).

Black - Telephone aerial (GSM)
Blue - GPS aerial (not install in my car)
purple - Emergency aerial (not install in my car)
