Keep in mi nd that Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11b/g radios both op erate i n the 2.4GHz
band. Although t he WORKABOUT PRO includes feat ures to minimize
interfe rence, performance of the system will not be opti mal i f you use both radios
simultaneo usly. Typical ly, when both radios o pera te i n th e hand -held at the same
time, they ca nnot tr ansmit si multa neously
–this has a ne gative impact on ove ral l
system throughput. To minimize the impac t on t he ba ckbone 802.11g network,
Psion Teklogix r ecommends using Blue toot h per ip herals that have low transaction
rates (such as pri nt ers and scanners) .
