COURSE OVERVIEW

Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Training, is a 3-days workshop. Learn about Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) wireless technology standards. Both Classic Bluetooth and BLE operate in the 2400-2483.5 MHz range within the ISM 2.4 GHz frequency band. In Classic Bluetooth, data is split into packets and exchanged through Bluetooth channels (79 designated channels, 1 MHz in bandwidth). Bluetooth Classic is a good fit for consumer products vs. BLE with lower power consumption for Machine to Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT). BLE also operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and unlike classic Bluetooth, it remains in sleep mode most of the time (low-duty cycle).
