====Microsoft Bluetooth Stack====
Prior to Windows 8, the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack only supports external or integrated Bluetooth dongles attached through [[USB]]. It does not support Bluetooth radio connections over [[Conventional PCI|PCI]], [[I2C|I²<sup>2</sup>C]], [[serial port|serial]], [[PC Card]] or other interfaces.<ref name="MSBTFAQ">{{cite web|url=http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/c/5/9c5b2167-8017-4bae-9fde-d599bac8184a/Bth_FAQ.docx |title=Bluetooth Wireless Technology FAQ |access-date=2012-11-04}}</ref> It also only supports a single Bluetooth radio.<ref name="MSBTFAQ"/> Windows 8 has an extensible transport model allowing support for Bluetooth radios on non-USB buses.<ref name="BTWindows">{{cite web|url=https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn133849(v=vs.85).aspx|title=General Bluetooth Support in Windows|publisher=Microsoft}}</ref>
Generally, only a single stack can be used at any time: switching usually requires uninstalling the current stack, although a trace of previous stacks remains in the Windows registry. However, there are some cases where two stacks can be used on the same Microsoft Windows system, each using their own separate Bluetooth radio hardware.
===Blue SDK===
OpenSynergy's Bluetooth Protocol Stack (Blue SDK) currently provides A2DP, AVRCP, VDP, BIP, BPP, CTN, FTP, GPP, HFP, HSP, HCRP, HDP, HID, MAP, OPP, PAN, PBAP, SAP, DUN, FAX, DID, GATT profiles. It is licensed by the Bluetooth™Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) and meets the standards of safety and security expected in automotive-grade products. Bluetooth™Bluetooth Software Development Kit (Blue SDK) can easily be integrated into any operating system. It supports both BR/EDR (Classic) and Low Energy operations, classic profiles and low energy profiles use the same underlying protocol stack software.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.opensynergy.com/produkte/blue-sdk/ |title=OpenSynergy's Blue SDK|date=28 October 2020 }}</ref>
