Motorola BLNC Bluetooth Car Kit Portfolio

Motorola's complete BLNC Bluetooth Car Kit Portfolio includes three aftermarket products providing consumers with a range of features and price points to choose from to make in-vehicle communication more convenient.

During CES, Motorola has demonstrated how its aftermarket Bluetooth car kits automatically connect securely to a driver's Bluetooth enabled phone to provide hands-free and wire-free communications inside the car.

For instance, the Motorola BLNC Bluetooth Car Kit IHF1000 within a General Motors Cadillac XLR is an easy to use premium, professionally installed aftermarket car kit which is voice operated and supports four languages, making it simple to add and remove Bluetooth enabled phones.

A haute couture, backlit controller is mounted to the dashboard to provide an intuitive user experience without the need for an additional display. At the touch of a button, Motorola's BLNC Bluetooth Car Kit IHF1000 will mute the audio system inside the vehicle and "listen" to the driver say the number or name they wish to call, or access speaker-independent voice tags stored in the vehicle as well as the speaker-dependent voice tags stored on their mobile phone. The system also will announce incoming calls, voicemail, SMS and low battery indicators to the driver.

The Motorola BLNC Bluetooth Car Kit IHF1000 is engineered to include a number of the same components and features found in the embedded line-fit Bluetooth communication systems the company has designed for its automotive customers. Some of these features include Motorola’s enhanced sound quality and road noise reduction technologies so calls are heard loud and clear by both parties. Motorola Labs, the applied research arm of the company focusing on leading edge technologies for future products and product enhancements, also contributed to the development of the product.

Motorola has also debuted its BLNC Bluetooth Car Kit HF850, a deluxe, professionally installed aftermarket car kit.

Motorola also has introduced its BLNC Bluetooth Car Kit HF820, an enhanced version of Motorola's popular HF800. This completely portable product requires no installation and can be carried in to, and out of, any car you drive. The product uses Bluetooth wireless technology to communicate with any compatible mobile device to provide crisp, clear sound quality through a one-watt speaker that incorporates sophisticated duplex, echo and noise reduction technology.

These new aftermarket in-vehicle car kits complement Motorola's complete portfolio of Bluetooth solutions that make life simpler, smarter and more enjoyable for consumers. Consumers can seamlessly connect any of Motorola's aftermarket car kits with:

Bluetooth wireless technology enabled Motorola phones including A630, A760, A768, A780, A835, A845, A925, A1000, E1000, E398, MPx220, V500, V501, V505, V535, V545, V547, V550, V551, V600, V620, V710, RAZR V3 and V80 mobile phones as well as non-Motorola Bluetooth enabled devices.

For an enhanced mobile experience once a consumer exits the car, they can continue their hands-free and wire-free conversation while on the go by pairing their mobile phone with any Bluetooth enabled headset accessory. Motorola's mobile phones are designed to work seamlessly with Motorola Bluetooth Headsets HS850, HS810, HS820, HS805 and Motorola Bluetooth Helmet Headset and Hands-free Pendant HS830, as well as non-Motorola Bluetooth enabled headset accessories.
