ESPOO, Finland, February 10 - Bluegiga Technologies, the leading Bluetooth OEM module
manufacturer, introduces the first truly long range Bluetooth module
providing exceptional radio performance. Bluegiga WT41 provides +20 dBm
output power which is the maximum allowed in Americas, Europe and various
Asian countries.

WT41 Bluetooth module can achieve 1000 meters distance in optimal
conditions and several hundreds of meters in an urban or office environment.
In addition to a RF power amplifier, WT41 also implements a low noise
amplifier significantly improving the module sensitivity down to -90 dBm. The
sensitivity improvement extends the WT41's range to Bluetooth class 2 devices
such as mobile phones or PDAs. WT41 module is available with integrated chip
antenna or U.FL antenna connector.

WT41 is targeted for numerous application areas requiring the best
possible performance and reliability for the Bluetooth wireless data or audio
connections. With WT41 module, the OEMs can avoid the sudden "no coverage"
situations as the link remains up even in most demanding conditions. Also the
WT41 module offers the industry-best Enhanced Data performance and range for
data intensive applications.

"This new WT41 module incorporates some of the world's finest
radio components and our innovative hardware design. The most challenging
task, when implementing a high power radio product, is to design it so that
it provides best performance in its class but still meets all the regulatory
limits defined by CE and FCC. Just as we did with WT41," comments Tom
Nordman
, Bluegiga's Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

The WT41 Bluetooth module is available with Bluegiga's iWRAP firmware
offering support for several Bluetooth profiles such as: SPP, HDP, DUN, OPP,
FTP HFP, HSP, AVRCP, PBAP, DI, HID and standard HCI over UART or USB.
