Note *:

Bluetooth v2.0 supports improved AFH function. AFH function is to mitigate the interference between WiFi and Bluetooth radios by

automatically avoiding the active WiFi channel from Bluetooth link. However, AFH does not provide a complete solution making WiFi and

Bluetooth work together in harmony. It is highly recommended for users to test their wireless system enough before deployment since the

overall system performance is affected by various environmental factors such as distance between them.
