The EDIMAX BT-8530 is a compact USB Bluetooth adapter that delivers Bluetooth 5.4 capabilities in a very small form factor. It supports LE Audio with LC3 codec for improved audio quality and reduced power consumption, simultaneous dual-mode operation (BR/EDR + LE), and a practical transmission range of up to 40 m. Designed for PCs, laptops and embedded systems, the BT-8530 provides easy setup with Windows and Linux and a discreet ultra-mini design that remains nearly invisible when plugged into a USB port.

Advantages

LE Audio with the LC3 codec delivers better sound at lower power, while the tiny 1.7 cm housing ensures minimal footprint and easy portability. With a USB 2.0 interface and 3 Mbit/s data rate it provides a straightforward wireless solution for everyday use.
