Follow on Google News | Score Electronics and connectBlue launch a Dual-Mode Bluetooth Smart Ready Serial Port AdapterThe Rugged Bluetooth Serial Port Adapter RBS421s is an easy-to-use Bluetooth dual-mode device that supports both Classic Bluetooth and Bluetooth low energy and can be used as a Bluetooth Smart Ready client for any host. Replace cables up to 300m
“What this means is that since the new RBS421s is dual-mode it can easily read periodic real-time data from small sensors via Bluetooth low energy and simultaneously use Classic Bluetooth for higher throughput connectivity with other devices,” says Rolf Nilsson, CEO of connectBlue. “This feature gives you the option to choose the best Bluetooth technology for any particular situation and this feature is also true for our Bluetooth Dual-mode Serial Port Module OBS421.” The robust and water proof Rugged Bluetooth Serial Port Adapter RBS421s replaces conventional serial cables up to 300 meters and is radio type approved for USA (FCC Part 15), Europe (ETSI R&TTE), Japan (MIC - formerly TELEC) and Canada (IC RSS). The RBS421s is also compliant with EMC, Safety and Medical standards, and Bluetooth qualified. Further, the Serial Port Adapter has embedded Classic Bluetooth stack (SPP, DUN and PAN profiles), Bluetooth low energy stack with connectBlue Low Energy Serial Port Service, serial RS232/422/485 interface, and support for 7 slaves connected at the same time. Besides the above mentioned features, the Rugged Bluetooth Serial Port Adapter RBS421s also incorporates sophisticated technical features for enhanced performance including Wireless Multidrop™ that allows up to seven devices to communicate simultaneously, Extended Data Mode™ for individual control of the channel data, and easy configuration by AT commands and configuration over Bluetooth technology. Caption With its IP65-classed housing, the Rugged Bluetooth Serial Port Adapter RBS421s is built for environments that may contain dust, water and heat – in-door or out-door. As it is a Bluetooth dual-mode (Bluetooth Smart Ready) device it supports both Classic Bluetooth v2.1+EDR and Bluetooth low energy v4.0. Bluetooth Low Energy Versus Classic Bluetooth Bluetooth low energy is ideal for applications with low data rates at periodic intervals, while Classic Bluetooth is optimized for streaming data at medium to high rates. Bluetooth low energy has inherited features such as Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFP) from Classic Bluetooth, but from an application perspective it is different and therefore there are two implementation options: Single-mode devices are stand-alone Bluetooth low energy devices (also known as "Bluetooth Smart” devices) optimized for small battery-operated devices with low cost and low power consumption in focus. A typical single-mode device is for example a heart rate sensor and the connectBlue OLP425, OLS425 and OLS426 modules. Dual-mode devices (also known as “Bluetooth Smart Ready” devices) include both Bluetooth low energy and Classic Bluetooth. A typical dual-mode device is a mobile phone, PC and the connectBlue OBS421 module and the connectBlue RBS421s adapter.
