| Channel |
Either a physical channel or an L2CAP channel, depending on the context. |
| Common ISDN Access Profile (CIP) |
CIP defines how ISDN signaling can be transferred via a Bluetooth wireless connection. CIP provides unrestricted access to the services, data and signaling that ISDN offers. |
| Connect (to service) |
The establishment of a connection to a service. If not already done, this also includes establishment of a physical link, logical transport, logical link and L2CAP channel. |
| Connectable device |
A Bluetooth enabled device in range that periodically listens on its page scan physical channel and will respond to a page on that channel. |
| Connecting |
A phase in the communication between devices when a connection between them is being established. (Connecting phase follows after the link establishment phase is completed.) |
| Connection |
A connection between two peer applications or higher layer protocols mapped onto an L2CAP channel. |
| Connection Establishment |
A procedure for creating a connection mapped onto a channel. |
| Cordless Telephony Profile (CTP) |
The CTP defines how a cordless phone can be implemented over a Bluetooth wireless link. This profile can be used for either a dedicated cordless phone or a mobile phone that acts as a cordless phone when in proximity to a base station implementing the CTP. It is anticipated that mobile phones could use a Bluetooth CTP gateway connected to a landline when within the home, and the mobile phone network when out of range. |
| Coverage Area |
The area where two Bluetooth enabled devices can exchange messages with acceptable quality and performance. |
| Creation of a Secure Connection |
A procedure of establishing a connection, including authentication and encryption. |
| Creation of a Trusted Relationship |
