From Digi-Key, Free2Move's Uncord replaces serial cables with a communication link based on Bluetooth wireless technology. Plug the Uncord unit into the 9-pin D-SUB connector of an RS-232 device and press the button to establish a wireless connection with a Bluetooth host.

With up to 500m (1500 feet) of communication radius, the Uncord offers a secure and reliable communication link over long distances. No external drivers are needed as the Uncord communicates using standardized profiles available in Bluetooth devices. Two LEDs presents the user with information regarding status of the device and data transfer.

Uncord communicates with equipment such as laptops, PDAs and mobile phones that support Bluetooth wireless technology using serial port profile (SPP) and dial-up networking (DUN). Installation and wiring costs are often underestimated expenses in a project. Bluetooth wireless technology can help to save time and money by removing the need for cords and wires.
