Bluetooth Qualification
Posts: n/a Hopefully there is someone who can explain the following: If I want to sell a bluetooth functionality (ie software who uses a bluetooth stick) is it a must to make a bluetooth qualification with SIG to sell the bluetooth software? Or can I sell it without qualification? Or: What have I to do that I don't have to qualify? Is the qualification just to get the BT-logo? Thanks for your answers Michael Edelmann  Responses to "Bluetooth Qualification"

This is not correct. If you are creating a product, then that product needs to be BQB approved. They will test the 'profile' being used by that product. If the product is almost entirely reusing something that is already BQB approved, the amount of testing should be low. pzboyz

What about this then ? http://www.bluez.org/ 'Official Linux Bluetooth protocol stack' This is just software, and there appears to be no BQB approvals, and SIG memberships here. -- Michael Turner Email (ROT13) zvxr.gheare1963@grfpb.arg

They sell an OEM module with antenna, stack-on-board and an on-board application layer implementing what they have named a 'wireless uart'. They claim that *no* additional BT qualification is needed. The thing works fine, btw - had a 'birds-nest' prototype running in a day or so. Darn, these things are hard to hand-solder... (and no, I have no affiliation whatsoever with said company...) regards Per Laursen
