How Bluetooth Wireless Works

Sphere: Related Content
The world of communication has changed greatly in a short amount of time. Thanks to the revolutionary world of cell phones, the world can be connected in an instant. However, cell phones without a wireless device can prove to be deadly if you are driving and talking at the same time. Luckily Bluetooth wireless items have come along, and they help to ensure that the world of communication gets smaller and smaller all the time. Understanding how a wireless Bluetooth device actually works though, is something that most of us do not think of when using one. But, as with any other type of gadget, understanding how it works can make us a better user.

Basic Bluetooth Wireless Information

The first thing to understand about the Bluetooth wireless device is that it uses a radio frequency to actually work. If you have a child then you also have another device that uses the same type of frequency. A baby monitor acts just like a Bluetooth wireless device. The actual radio waves that work with a wireless Bluetooth device are very low and can actually work up to thirty two feet away from the device, such as a cell phone that it is compatible with when working. The good thing about using a Bluetooth wireless headset is that because the Bluetooth wireless device does what is known as frequency hopping, rarely will two or more devices interfere with each other. That is why so many people can drive on the same road and not hear each other’s conversation. Granted, though, sometimes this may actually occur, but it is really a rarity.

Since this may be a draw back for some to purchase a Bluetooth wireless device, one may be wondering how often a Bluetooth wireless device actually does change it frequency. The answer is a whopping one thousand six hundred a second. That is enough to make anyone’s head do a double take. A person who is reluctant to purchase a Bluetooth wireless device on the grounds that they will hear others should really put their fears at ease.

Owning and operating a Bluetooth wireless device is easy once you understand how they work. Just as with other devices including a garage door opener and a baby monitor, a Bluetooth wireless device uses radio frequency. This is a plus for those who may be pondering whether or not to purchase one. Bluetooth wireless devices have come a long way, and they help to keep us safe while we drive, so go ahead and buy one. It may save your life.

Some Security Concerns With Bluetooth Headset Technology

Sphere: Related Content
In 2005, with Bluetooth headset technology not yet ten years old, cyber criminals had already figured out ways to exploit it for fraud. Since then, a lot of security issues with Bluetooth headset technology have been addressed not only by Ericsson, the official manufacturer of Bluetooth products, but with many other name brands that can use Bluetooth headset technology. But you should still use common sense when using any Bluetooth device.

What's The Big Deal?

In case you are scratching your head and frantically trying to remember, "What is Bluetooth technology?" here's a brief summary. Bluetooth is the brand name for the wireless technology that allows electronic devices like laptops, cell phones, laser printers and iPods to communicate with each other over short distances.

Bluetooth headset technology is the most popular form of Bluetooth technology. They look like little space-age ear plugs worm into or over one ear. There are two-eared versions, but many people prefer to use just one ear for safety reasons, especially if they only use their Bluetooth headset technology to make them be able to use their cell phones without using their hands, too.

You need both a Bluetooth device and a cell phone in order to get your calls through. Someday there may be a complete cell phone already in Bluetooth headset technology, but we're not quite there yet. Keep in mind that you couldn’t text, watch movies or take pictures with such a phone. If would – well, it would only be a phone. Horrors!
