Introduction
The Bluetooth Serial Port (SPP) provides a virtual serial port via Bluetooth as an
alternative to a hardwired serial cable between a computer and device. Any program that
uses a standard serial port can use the Bluetooth serial port without any change.
The SPP profile can be used in the following scenarios:
♦
Connecting two computers through a Bluetooth serial port.
♦
Using SPP to print a document.
♦
Connecting a computer to any other device that supports SPP through a
Bluetooth serial port.
