USB Bluetooth adapters
Bluetooth standard, developed back in the 90s of the 20th century, has become the undisputed winner in the world of short-range wireless links. The IrDA interface, present in some devices (especially cell phones), was quickly replaced by "Sine Tree" (Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century king of Denmark). It turns out that - despite numerous changes in the specification of the standard over the past 20 years - Bluetooth is still gaining popularity, although it is already available in the vast majority of electronic gadgets and computers, not to mention all models of smartphones and other mobile devices. In this category we have gathered various types of Bluetooth USB adapters, which allow you to add wireless connectivity to devices that are not factory equipped with this interface.

Bluetooth USB adapters – why are they still needed?
All currently produced laptops, as well as many desktop computers and single-board minicomputers (e.g. Raspberry Pi generations 3 and 4) are factory-equipped with an integrated Bluetooth module, allowing connection to devices such as wireless headphones, Bluetooth speakers, stereo audio sets, and also headsets, teleconferencing accessories, pointing devices and all kinds of wearable gadgets (so-called "wearable electronics").
However, many models of "PCs" and budget versions of SBC minicomputers still lack wireless connectivity in this popular standard - this situation applies to both many older devices and some new designs. In such cases, a Bluetooth computer adapter will come to the rescue - a small device the size of a pendrive or - very often - even smaller, with dimensions indistinguishable from the receiver of a wireless "nano" mouse. Importantly, USB adapters work perfectly with Windows systems. Other operating systems, such as various Linux distributions, also work with Bluetooth adapters, which is of great importance for a wide range of users of open source operating systems.
There is also nothing stopping you from connecting a portable computer equipped with a Bluetooth USB adapter to the car radio - of course, you should first make sure that your radio model supports wireless communication (you can also purchase an appropriate adapter with an audio output). In addition, Bluetooth adapters can be successfully paired with many mobile devices such as tablets, smartphones and music players.
Bluetooth USB adapters for classic applications
Our offer includes various types of Bluetooth adapters connected directly to the computer's USB port. Depending on the required connection standard, you can choose both models compatible with Bluetooth 2.0 and modern adapters supporting data transmission to/from low-power devices in the Bluetooth 4.0 BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) standard.
The first group includes an inexpensive, miniature module from Esperanza, marked EA159, which, in addition to Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 10, also works with Linux distributions used in Raspberry Pi minicomputers - on the product page you will find a link with a description of driver installation in "raspberry" operating system.
We also recommend the long-range BLE module BLED112-V1, as well as the branded Bluetooth USB adapter Asus USB-BT400, which also supports the Bluetooth 4.0 BLE standard. We also have dedicated Lego WeDo 2.0 adapters that allow you to connect your computer to robot controllers from a world-famous manufacturer of blocks for children and teenagers.
Bluetooth USB adapters for special applications
In the Botland store you will also find two special Bluetooth USB adapters, intended for prototype and evaluation applications. Bluefruit LE USB Friend by Adafruit is a small board with a Bluetooth BLE module, controlled by a USB-UART converter manufactured by FTDI. Thanks to this solution, simple communication is possible from almost any terminal program running under one of the operating systems supported by FTDI.
Bluetooth adapter - additional information
The module is seen in the operating system as a virtual serial port (COM), and AT commands can be used for control. In turn, the Bluefruit LE USB Sniffer module allows you to "eavesdrop" on traffic on the Bluetooth 4.0 BLE link, which is of great importance for people involved in debugging applications using this ubiquitous and modern wireless communication standard.
All products available in the Botland assortment come directly from manufacturers or proven suppliers, so you are guaranteed originality. If you have any questions or concerns about Bluetooth modules, please contact our experienced advisors.
