Description

Stereo 2-channel MH-M38 Bluetooth 4.2 RX module designed to build wireless Bluetooth connectivity into wired audio systems.

It supports 2-channel stereo transmission with built-in audio decoding, for stable playback that works with the main music formats. Once switched on it is detected as device MH-M38 and allows automatic pairing with smartphones and Bluetooth sources, with no further configuration.

The module has a status LED that shows what the system is doing, from device search through to active connection and audio playback. Wireless range reaches up to 20 metres in open space, which makes it suitable for installations further away from the source too.
