Parani-BCD210 combines an antenna for OEM manufactures who want to implement Bluetooth Class 2 functionality with their products cost effectively and in a timely manner. It supports Class 2 Bluetooth low power transmission levels with reasonable communication distance up to 300m at line-of-sight. BCD210 supports UART, USB, I2C, PCM, and PIO interfaces for the communication with the OEM products.

It comes with Bluetooth v2.0+EDR compatible firmware and runs internally for SPP (Serial Port Profile) applications by default.
