Hi all,

     This may be a FAQ, but I could not locate an definit answer.

 

I want to what are all the implications of having multiple bluetooth adapters on a machine.

As you might have guessed, I would like to host more than 7 (say 100 ) BT connections (SPP) at a time. I noticed BlueZ supports upto 16 adapters - which means it can support upto 112 connections at a time ??

 

Anybody ever tried it ?

 

In other words, if I have 16 adapters installed on a box and have 100 client BT devices around, can they all communicate to one of those 16 adapters at any time ? I don't know much about the RF side of the problem, but I am little concerned about the fact that BT band-width is small. So can all those devices resonabily share the narrow frequency space ?

 

Any comments or pointers to any tech infomation / articles / resources will be greatly appreciated.

 

thanks in advance.
