Title: Bluetooth 5 will double the speed, quadruple the range of its predecessor Post by: HCK on June 18, 2016, 04:05:22 pm Bluetooth 5 will double the speed, quadruple the range of its predecessor
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) have announced the details of Bluetooth 5. The next version of the wireless hardware standard will have double the speeds and four times the range of Bluetooth 4, The SIG stated: Bluetooth 5, projected for release in late 2016 to early 2017, will quadruple range and double speed of low energy connections while increasing the capacity of connectionless data broadcasts by 800 percent. It achieves all this alongside its industry-leading power performance. With the major boost in broadcast messaging capacity, the data being transferred will be richer, more intelligent. This will redefine the way Bluetooth devices transmit information, moving away from the app-paired-to-device model to a connectionless IoT where there is less need to download an app or connect the app to a device. SIG added that it expects the launch of Bluetooth 5 to accelerate the growth of Internet of Things products: With eight times the broadcast messaging capac...
