Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology
for exchanging information over a distance of about 30 feet.

Bluetooth. If the devices are in range, you can exchange
information between them, even if they are in different rooms.

individual devices. For a list of profiles your device supports, see
