Because Bluetooth wireless technology uses radio transmission, voice and data are transmitted almost immediately. Bluetooth transmission ensures both protection from interference and secure data transfers. You might use Bluetooth wireless technology in these ways: Dial up to the Internet on your notebook over your Bluetooth cellular phone. Send a fax from your notebook over your Bluetooth cellular phone. Synchronize your Bluetooth PDA with your notebook. Send your business card to anyone in a meeting who has a Bluetooth device. Send or receive files to or from anyone in a meeting who has a Bluetooth notebook or PDA. Chat with anyone in a meeting who has a Bluetooth notebook. Play a one-on-one serial game without a cable. Send an e-mail from your training session without being wired to the network. Bluetooth Wireless PC Card or USB Adapter Wireless Radio Transmission The Bluetooth wireless PC Card or USB adapter uses a reliable radio frequency to transmit data wirelessly. The onboard radio uses the following settings: n Radio transmit power: +4 dBm (2mW) n Radio sensitivity: better than –70 dBm n Frequency range: 2.402–2.480 GHz Optimized Antenna The Bluetooth antenna provides good performance in all directions. Software and Firmware Current software and firmware versions are available on the 3Com Web site at: www.support.3com.com 2 Installing Your Bluetooth Wireless PC Card or USB Adapter and Connection Manager Bluetooth Installation CD The Bluetooth Installation CD contains the following: n Setup programs and drivers for Windows 98 Second Edition (SE), Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me), Windows 2000, and Windows XP n Bluetooth Connection Manager n README.TXT file with updated information about your Bluetooth Wireless PC Card n This user guide n Adobe Acrobat Reader Installing the PC Card or USB Adapter and Virtual COM Ports in Windows Operating Systems 1 With the computer on and Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, or XP running, insert the Bluetooth Installation CD into the CD-ROM drive.
