Bluetooth is a wireless technology that makes use of a low bandwidth and is so easy to use. Version 1.1 of Bluetooth describes a low power, short range wireless networking technology that uses radio waves to send data at rates up to 720 kilobits a second.

Bluetooth specifications for different radio classes allow transmission ranges of up to a hundred meters if the power is boosted. The technology of Bluetooth isn't limited to line of sight transmission since it uses directional waves that are capable of transmitting through many obstructions.

With Bluetooth, devices like cell phones, computers, digital cameras, and many more, can be connected to each other since the technology is industry standard communication of wireless. The specification of Bluetooth defines a radio system and a "stack" of protocol layers and profiles. The highest layer is the application layer, while the lowest layer is the radio.

Bluetooth totally revolutionized the wireless technology.

Cables are unnecessary for Bluetooth. It's very easy and quick to connect two or more devices, and communication capabilities are expanded, too.

The size of the Bluetooth radio is amazing, as a Bluetooth radio can be built into one or two very small microchips then integrated into any electronic device where wireless operations would be an advantage.

Since the link that Bluetooth forms is very strong, there is little chance of interruptions while it is operating.

Bluetooth operates worldwide, and its radio uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band, which is free and available worldwide. You location on the globe won't matter at all.

Security is also important. Bluetooth gives users high level security with its advanced mechanisms. Authentication will not allow unauthorized access to data.

Bluetooth also boasts power optimization. Bluetooth does not use up much power when you use it. In fact, the radio only uses a very small amount of power from a cell phone.
