3.1.2.2Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard for exchanging data over short distances
from fixed and mobile devices, creating personal area networks (PANs) with high
levels of security. It can connect several devices, overcoming problems of
synchronization.
E430 support Bluetooth v2.1+EDR. It is fully backward compatible with 1.2. The
headline feature of 2.1 is securing simple pairing (SSP): this improves the pairing
experience for Bluetooth devices, while increasing the use and strength of security.
2.1 allows various other improvements, including "Extended inquiry response" (EIR),
which provides more information during the inquiry procedure to allow better
filtering of devices before connection and reduces the power consumption in
low-power mode.
Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) is for faster data transfer. The nominal rate of EDR is
about 3 Mbit/s, although the practical data transfer rate is 2.1 Mbit/s. EDR can
provide lower power consumption through a reduced duty cycle.
