Bluetooth Modem for A31

#1 Post by cpn » Thu Jan 11, 2007 12:30 am

I want to add a bluetooth modem to my A31. I can put any CDC modem/bluetooth modem combo card in, or do I have to use one of the older ones?

BMDC200 and/or BMDC200b is what you need, I have BMDC200b in my A31p. AFAIK newer BMDC3 won't work with A3x series.

IBM FRU PN: 91P7319 and 93P3471, in addition you'll need BT antenna and BT clearplate.

For BT antenna you may use original A31/p FRU part or pretty much *any* BT antenna from ebay (only make sure that cable is long enough to reach CDC card), I have T4x antenna custom installed under palmrest in my A31p and works perfectly. Got it for free with BMDC200b CDC card from ebay.

Think that I still have BT A31 clearplate set somewhere, original IBM clearplate set contains sets for A31 and A31p. So this A31 set is leftover after upgrading my A31p with BT clearplate.
