Cordless connector, network bridge, peripheral interface, ad hoc networking tool
- Bluetooth does it all.
Worldwide capability
Bluetooth technology from Toshiba redefines short-distance communication with the aid of a tiny
radio module that operates on the globally available 2.4 Ghz ISM band. This enables universal communication
capability.
Secure voice and data transmission
With 79 separate channels over which to transmit data, the card uses Frequency Hopping to keep transmission
secure. It randomly changes the transmission channel of individual packets of data at up to 1,600 hops
per second.
Fully robust
Designed to operate in a noisy radio frequency environment, Bluetooth radio technology uses a fast acknowledgement
and frequency-hopping scheme, making it more robust than many other wireless systems.
High speed
Bluetooth PC Card from Toshiba is a ratified version, which means it offers a fast transmission rate of
1Mbps (max. raw rate). You'll be able to exchange data using Bluetooth technology at speeds up to 12 times
faster than over a V.90 modem.
Greater distance
Bluetooth PC Card from Toshiba is equipped with a stronger transmitter (capable of 20dBm) than many Bluetooth
devices from other manufacturers. This widens it's reach and data transmission while the output power is
adjusted to the real distance requirements.
Power efficient
Bluetooth technology is designed to conserve battery life. In standby mode, the radio chip uses less than
three per cent of the power used by a mobile phone. Power-saving features automatically shift to low-power
mode when traffic lessens or stops.
