Bluetooth low energy - Compatibility

1 The Bluetooth low energy protocol is not backward compatible with the

previous (often called 'Classic') Bluetooth protocol. The Bluetooth 4.0

specification permits devices to implement either, or both, of the LE

and Classic systems. Those that implement both are known as

Bluetooth 4.0 dual-mode devices.


Bluetooth low energy - Applications

1 The Bluetooth SIG defines many profiles for Low Energy devices: a profile is a specification for how a

device works in a particular application. Manufacturers are

expected to implement the appropriate specification(s) for their

device in order to ensure compatibility. Bluetooth 4.0 provides low power consumption with higher

baud rates.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-bluetooth-4-toolkit.html
