Bluetooth wireless

technology

Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-

range wireless technology linking digital

devices, such as personal computers and

digital still cameras. Using the Bluetooth

wireless technology, you can operate the

units involved within a range of about 10

meters.
The Bluetooth wireless technology is

commonly used between two devices,

but a single device can be connected to

multiple devices.
You do not need wires to get connected

as you do with a USB connection, and

you do not need to place the devices face

to face as you do with wireless infrared

technology. You can use the technology

with one Bluetooth device in your bag

or pocket.
Bluetooth wireless technology is a global

standard supported by thousands of

companies. These companies produce

products that meet the global standard.

Effective communication range

Bluetooth devices should be used within

approximately 10 meters (unobstructed

distance) of each other. The effective

communication range may become

shorter under the following conditions.

 When a person, metal object, wall

or other obstruction is between the

devices with a Bluetooth connection

 Locations where a wireless LAN is

installed

 Around microwave ovens that are in

use

 Locations where other electromagnetic

waves occur

Effects of other devices

Bluetooth devices and wireless LAN

(IEEE 802.11b/g) use the same frequency

band (2.4 GHz). When using your

Bluetooth device near a device with

wireless LAN capability, electromagnetic

interference may occur. This could result

in lower data transfer rates, noise, or

inability to connect. If this happens, try

the following remedies:

 Try connecting this system and

Bluetooth mobile phone or Bluetooth

device when you are at least 10

meters away from the wireless LAN

equipment.

 Turn off the power to the wireless LAN

equipment when using your Bluetooth

device within 10 meters.
