Sending stereo music over Bluetooth to BlueAnt devices from mobile phones and PDA’s
What is A2DP?
A2DP is the abbreviation for Advance Audio Distribution Profile.
A2DP technology is a new music revolution allowing you to send CD quality stereo music from one device to another without wires. A2DP is stereo music sent over Bluetooth without the hassle of plugging cables. Bluetooth Wireless Technology with A2DP technology makes mobile phones, pda’s and computers capable of streaming music directly to products such as the
X5 Stereo Headset or the BlueSonic Portable Speakers.
The Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) is just one of the modes available for Bluetooth technology.
Can my mobile phone or PDA stream stereo music directly to the X5 Headset or the BlueSonic Speakers?
Yes, if your phone has A2DP you can send music without wires to our BlueSonic portable speakers and X5 Stereo headset. Check below to see
if your device is listed. New devices are often being released that include A2DP so also check our website for an updated list. New ROM upgrades for available for PDAs may include A2DP.
Alternatively there are third-party applications and programs available for Windows Mobile and Palm devices that enable A2DP. This information will be made available on our website as it comes to hand...
What if my Bluetooth phone does not have A2DP?
You will still be able to use the Bluetooth handsfree functions of the X5 and BlueSonic with your mobile phone while streaming music from a PC. When a call comes in, the music will stop and you can answer the call. To enable your computer to have A2DP, use the external Bluetooth USB Dongle that comes with the BlueSonic …or the audio streamer that comes with the X5.
Though many devices already come with A2DP, for the X5 you can A2DP enable any audio device TV, DVD, PC or Mac, Stereo, MP3 player, iPod etc using our included “A2DP streamer”.
See below for a full list of the latest devices supporting A2DP.
