What is this box in my CX-5 GT with tech? Is it the amp?

I was folding down the seats today using the release from the backseat and as I was folding the drivers side back seat, I noticed a box mounted to the frame that had 4 wires coming from it. I wasn't sure what it was, but I was thinking it might be the amp that is supposedly part of the Bose system. I also thought it might have to do with the Mazda CAN bus system. Not really sure. The box had a barcode and a part number, but didn't have any luck identifying it when doing a google search. Any ideas? It would be nice if it is the amp. Up to this point I was thinking it might not really have one.

I saw that a while ago too - I asked the Mazda service dept about it and they said it was the control unit for the 'ejector seat' system. Only on models with Moon roof.

I would guess it has to do with the seat sensor for the seatbelt/airbag.
