Technical facts
Small size
Bluetooth does not require much space. In fact,
the Bluetooth radio can be built into a small
microchip and integrated in any electronic
device where wireless operation would be an
advantage.
Worldwide operation
You can use Bluetooth anywhere. The radio
operates in the 2.45 GHz band, which is
licence-free and available to any radio system
in the world.
Link establishment
You can establish a link between two or more
devices almost instantly. The link will be
maintained even if the devices are not within
line of sight.
Robust link
Bluetooth provides a very robust link. The
technology ensures that, under normal
circumstances, you will not be bothered by
interference from other radio signals operating
in the same frequency band.
Data or voice
You can use a Bluetooth radio for data transfer
or voice communication; or you can use it for
both simultaneously.
Range
As already mentioned, Bluetooth is based on
short-range radio transmission. The normal
range of the Bluetooth radio is either 10 meters
or 100 meters, depending on your Bluetooth
equipment.
