RTX now in 100% control of every technical
building block needed to design and develop any Bluetooth product - including
Microsoft PC integration
RTX Telecom and Impulsesoft Private Limited today announced a new partnership
that provides RTX Telecom with full access to the award-winning Impulsesoft
Bluetooth protocol for both PC and MicrosoftTM operating systems.
“I am very happy with this agreement, since Bluetooth
integration with Microsoft was our last missing link in order to design and
develop Bluetooth Internet Access products and any other PC peripheral product.
Since we now have 100% control of every software and hardware component, we are
able to design products with a low Bill of Material, which is very important for
our Consumer Premises Equipment customers,” says Mr Jørgen Elbæk, managing
director, RTX Telecom.
RTX Telecom can today demonstrate an inexpensive ISDN modem
with a USB interface to the PC and Microsoft Operating System ready to be sold
as an OEM for CPE customers and contract manufacturers. In the near future, RTX
Telecom will also be able to demonstrate a Bluetooth LAN Access product.
The end2end Bluetooth modem is Bluetooth 1.1 compliant and is
pre-tested for interoperability, performance and stability. This provides
customers with the benefit of a robust and reliable Bluetooth solution, which
thus reduces their development efforts.
“The combination of our USB dongle and the complementary and
proven software stack from Impulsesoft enables us to supply our customers with a
superior, easy-to-use product,” says Mr Elbæk. “This partnership with
Impulsesoft will further strengthen the software and applications support that
we can offer potential customers.”
Impulsesoft BluePC
The Impulsesoft BluePC™ is a high-performance, versatile Bluetooth stack

medium. BluePC is the world’s first WDM USB driver to be logo certified.
BluePC provides Bluetooth 1.1 support on the Windows 98SE, Windows Me, Windows
2000 and Windows XP platforms. Software drivers interact with the lower
Bluetooth stack over a number of interfaces, including USB, UART and PC Card
interfaces.
