Amsterdam Bluetooth demo shows web-based control
A web-based remote controller for a DVD player has provided the first ever demonstration of Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) running over Bluetooth wireless technology.
The test solution, based on Agilent's N4010A wireless connectivity test set, is specifically designed as an upgrade to existing N4010A Bluetooth users.
It directly addresses the cost of testing for adopters of CSR's BlueCore4 and BlueCore5 Bluetooth version 2.0, plus Enhanced datarate chipsets.
"CSR is a leading supplier of Bluetooth EDR technology worldwide", commented Earl Thompson, Vice President and General Manager of Agilent's Wireless Division.
"Agilent's support of BlueCore4 and BlueCore5 in the N4010A test set, coupled with its ability to provide the worldwide support necessary for such leading-edge products, enables us to reach the greatest number of Bluetooth EDR device manufacturers with a test platform that uniquely addresses their concerns over cost of ownership of test equipment, as well as the overall cost of test issues".
"CSR's engineering community has been working with Agilent Technologies for some time to deliver the functionality required to cost-effectively, quickly and reliably test Bluetooth EDR products", said Simon Finch, Vice President of Strategic Marketing for CSR.
"Using this functionality our customers can minimise time to market, while ensuring the quality of their end product is not compromised".
"We also see this test capability as extremely useful for manufacturers who already own the Agilent's N4010A test set".
"They can easily upgrade to acquire the new functionality, thereby extending the useful life of their manufacturing test product".
