Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a technology that transfers data over a short distance using a radio frequency. It is a type of low-power wireless technology, which means it transfers data at a low bit rate and without cables. There are two types of Bluetooth devices:
Class 1 devices transfer data over a range of around 100 meters because they have a higher power output
Class 2 devices transfer data over a range of around 10 meters because they have a lower power output
