The 3Com Bluetooth Wireless USB Adapter is the largest in the test field next to the Anycom USB Adapter and costs about 170 Euros. Its size is beneficial because the product has a 180 degree swivel antenna and a rotatable USB connector. Via the latter, the dongle can be plugged into any USB port without obstructing other USB devices. If the adapter blocks a USB port, the USB plug can be removed and a USB extension cable (cable extension: 50 cm) can be attached.
As soon as the drivers for the dongle are installed, a blue LED lights up on the surface. Unfortunately the LED does not indicate whether the device is transmitting or receiving. The 3com USB Adapter complies with the adopted Bluetooth specifications in version 1.1 and has an internal flash memory.
Specification updates and further future adjustments can thus be carried out by means of software. Every 3Com adapter comes bundled with the Bluetooth Software Connection Manager, which is easy to install, but it is a little cumbersome to use because many supported profiles are not displayed and can only be used by tricks. Also, this software does not allow to send entire folders via Bluetooth. Only single files can be sent. The system access is protected by three selectable progressive safety levels.
