The KC-210 is built with our maximum range KC-11 Bluetooth OEM Amplified Module. This USB serial adapter is a completely embedded Bluetooth solution.
Advantages of an embedded USB adapter:
The BlueWave Class 1 USB Dongle is aimed at product applications where a non-Bluetooth PC or laptop needs to connect to another Bluetooth device such as a BlueWAVE module.
By installing the BlueWave USB Dongle on your PC you can add Bluetooth wireless connectivity to your product and be compatible with the leading range of Bluetooth data cards, PDAs and PCs, and cellular phones without any software or hardware development. In addition, the USB dongle has been extensively tested to ensure that this is the optimum device to use alongside our other BlueWAVE products. Unlike most USB dongles on the market which only give the user a 10m range, this product provides a 100m range making it ideal for all applications.

A company manufacturing medical diagnostic equipment have a heart monitor product that connects to a PC via an RS232 cable. The company would like to remove the need for the cable and allow their product to connect to the PC using Bluetooth. The manufacturer selects the BlueWAVE RS232 DCE Terminal module and integrates the daughter board PCB into their existing product. They also select the BlueWAVE USB Dongle and install this on the PC. The PC is now Bluetooth enabled. They now have a fully compliant Bluetooth product without any development costs within a minimal timeframe.
As Wireless Futures is a leading wireless development consultancy, we are able to offer a complimentary technical support package to our customers integrating the BlueWAVE products. This technical support will include telephone and email advice support@adaptivemodules.com.

The USB Dongle is aimed at OEMs planning to deploy 802.15.4 or ZigBee enabled solutions into their product range. The dongle provides a simple method of integrating 802.15.4 or ZigBee into computers, gateways and/or bridge devices.
The dongle software development kit provides a convenient application interface to the software developer, thereby removing any need to develop USB drivers or even have experience in developing wireless technology. By means of the dongle, Integration offers the opportunity for OEMs to reduce R&D costs, reduce time-to-market, and minimize development risks.
The dongle is available with a choice of two driver options: The 802.15.4 drivers provide direct access to the 802.15.4 MAC interface. The ZigBee drivers allow the dongle to operate within a ZigBee network and expose the AF / ZDO Application Interfaces.
The dongle instantly enables a wireless ZigBee connection for existing equipment such as desktops, notebooks and PDAs to monitor and control ZigBee devices with plug and play convenience. The dongle node can either initiate connections, or accept incoming connections. The dongle can be configured as a network coordinator to start a new network, or can join an existing network as a router / end device.
