OVERVIEW

Roving Networks offers a variety of Bluetooth serial adapters with different form factors and powering options (see Table 1).

These adapters enable wireless connection to any legacy serial port and support bi-directional RS-232 or RS-422 signaling

at a rate of up to 464 Kbps. To create a wireless cable replacement solution, simply attach the adapter to your device's

RS-232 or EIA-232/422 port and connect to it over Bluetooth. The transmission range is up to 330 feet (100 meters),

depending on environmental factors.

You can use these adapters as Bluetooth master or slave devices. The serial port profile (SPP) connection to the adapter

appears via a virtual COM interface. Data is sent and received on the client side as if a serial cable was connected to a real

COM port on the client.

You can also use the adapters in cable replacement mode in which two Roving Networks’ Bluetooth devices are paired

using configuration switches. The USB-to-Bluetooth (RN-USB-X) dongle has pairing switches and you can use it with the

Bluetooth adapter to create a wireless connection to a PC without using the PC’s Bluetooth stack. For more information on

cable replacement, refer to the Bluetooth Cable Replacement Application Note on the Roving Networks website at

http://www.rovingnetworks.com/Support_Overview.
