StarTech.com AV53C1-USB-BLUETOOTH — USB Bluetooth 5.3 Class 1 Adapter

Bluetooth 5.3Class 1, up to 100 m5 dBi antennaWindows · Linux

The StarTech.com AV53C1-USB-BLUETOOTH is a USB Bluetooth 5.3 Class 1 adapter that adds long-range Bluetooth to a Windows or Linux PC. It uses a detachable 5 dBi omni-directional antenna and a Realtek RTL8761BUE chipset, and StarTech.com quotes a range of up to 100 m in open space — far beyond the few metres of a small Class 2 dongle. It is backward compatible with Bluetooth 4.0, 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0 devices. In practice it lets a desktop in the corner of an office or a workshop reach headsets, speakers, keyboards and other Bluetooth devices across the room, or replaces a weak built-in Bluetooth radio. It is a Bluetooth adapter only, not a Wi-Fi adapter.

Compatibility — check before buying:
No macOS support: StarTech.com lists Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 and Linux kernel 5.19 or newer only. It is Bluetooth only — it does not add Wi-Fi. StarTech.com lists the A2DP and PAN profiles; ask us before buying for another profile. Not sure it suits your PC or router? Send us the computer model and your router and we check it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it add Wi-Fi?
No. It is a Bluetooth 5.3 adapter only. For Wi-Fi, choose one of our Wi-Fi USB adapters.
Will I really get 100 m?
That is StarTech.com’s open-space figure. Walls, furniture and the range of the other device reduce it; the other device’s own Bluetooth class often sets the practical limit.
Will it work on a Mac?
macOS is not listed by StarTech.com. It is specified for Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 and Linux kernel 5.19 or newer.
Which profiles are supported?
StarTech.com lists A2DP (stereo audio) and PAN. If you need a specific profile, tell us the device and we check.
Singular Expert Insight
We suggest the AV53C1-USB-BLUETOOTH where a small Bluetooth dongle cannot reach across the room: the Class 1 radio and 5 dBi antenna give the range. Every order comes with Singular’s local support in Cyprus. See our Wi-Fi USB adapters if you also need Wi-Fi, and the headphones that pair with it.
