The Bluetooth SIG oversees development of the specification, manages the qualification program, and protects the trademarks. The IEEE standardized Bluetooth as IEEE 802.15.1, but no longer maintains the standard. In the most widely used mode, transmission power is limited to 2.5 milliwatts, giving it a very short range of up to 10 meters (30 feet).īluetooth is managed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), which has more than 35,000 member companies in the areas of telecommunication, computing, networking, and consumer electronics.

It is mainly used as an alternative to wire connections, to exchange files between nearby portable devices and connect cell phones and music players with wireless headphones. It was originally conceived as a wireless alternative to RS-232 data cables. More than a kilometer, Less than a meter īluetooth is a short-range wireless technology standard that is used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short distances using UHF radio waves in the ISM bands, from 2.402 GHz to 2.48 GHz, and building personal area networks (PANs).
