About the BLUETOOTH wireless technology

The BLUETOOTH wireless technology is a short-range wireless technology that enables communication between digital
devices, such as smartphones and computers.
Supported version and profiles of the BLUETOOTH standard
A profile is a set of functions standardized for every characteristic of BLUETOOTH devices. The speaker supports the
following version and profiles of the BLUETOOTH standard.
Supported BLUETOOTH version: BLUETOOTH standard, version 5.3
Supported BLUETOOTH profiles:
A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile): Enables transmission and reception of high-quality music contents.
AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile): Enables volume adjustment and operations to play/pause music and
skip to the beginning of the next/current track.
HFP (Hands-free Profile)
*
If the smartphone or mobile phone with the BLUETOOTH function supports both HFP and HSP, use HFP (Hands-free Profile).
Maximum communication range
Use the BLUETOOTH wireless technology between the speaker and a device that are located within 30 m (about 98 ft)
from each other.
Maximum communication range may shorten under the following conditions.
There is an obstacle such as a person, metal, or wall between the speaker and BLUETOOTH device.
A wireless LAN device is in use near the speaker.
A microwave oven is in use near the speaker.
A device that generates electromagnetic radiation is in use near the speaker.
Frequency band
2.4 GHz band (2.400 0 GHz – 2.483 5 GHz)
Corresponding content protection
SCMS-T
Transmission range (A2DP)
20 Hz – 20 000 Hz (Sampling frequency 44.1 kHz)
Interference from other devices
Because BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g/n) use the same frequency (2.4 GHz), microwave
interference may occur and result in communication speed deterioration, noise, or invalid connection if the speaker is
used near a wireless LAN device.
Interference to other devices
Microwaves emitted from a BLUETOOTH device may affect the operation of electronic medical devices. Turn off the
speaker and other BLUETOOTH devices in the following locations, as it may cause an accident.
