Overview
- The Simplecom NB640 brings Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity to desktop computers and laptops with a simple USB dongle. Compliant with Bluetooth Core Specification 6.0, it delivers faster device discovery, reduced latency, and improved energy efficiency compared to earlier Bluetooth versions. The adapter supports up to 7 devices simultaneously, making it ideal for environments where users manage multiple wireless peripherals—keyboards, mice, headphones, speakers, and printers.
With a 20-metre wireless range and dual-mode support for both classic Bluetooth (BR/EDR) and low-energy (BLE) devices, the NB640 ensures broad compatibility across consumer and professional Bluetooth ecosystems. Enhanced codec support enables high-resolution wireless audio, delivering a better listening experience for audio-focused users. Installation is straightforward: simply plug the adapter into any USB 2.0 port, and Windows 10 and later operating systems will recognise it automatically without requiring drivers.
The adapter is particularly valuable for older PCs and laptops that lack built-in Bluetooth or for users whose internal Bluetooth modules are unreliable or limited. It offers a cost-effective upgrade path without the need for internal hardware modifications or professional installation.

FAQs
Is the Simplecom NB640 compatible with my PC?
The NB640 is compatible with Windows 7 (driver installation required) and Windows 10 and later (automatic plug-and-play installation). If your PC has built-in Bluetooth, it must be disabled in BIOS or Device Manager first, as Windows cannot manage two concurrent Bluetooth radio controllers simultaneously.
How many devices can I connect at once?
The NB640 supports simultaneous connection of up to 7 Bluetooth devices. This allows you to pair multiple peripherals—such as keyboards, mice, headphones, and speakers—and switch between them as needed.
What is the wireless range of this adapter?
The NB640 has a wireless range of up to 20 metres under ideal conditions (Class II power standard). Actual range may vary depending on obstacles, interference, and the Bluetooth device being used.
Do I need to install drivers?
On Windows 10 and later, the adapter is plug-and-play and requires no driver installation—it will be detected automatically (internet connection recommended for automatic updates). On Windows 7, you will need to download and install drivers from the Simplecom support website.
Can I use this adapter if my PC already has Bluetooth?
Yes, but you must first disable the built-in Bluetooth in Windows Device Manager or BIOS. Windows cannot operate two Bluetooth radio controllers at the same time, so only one can be active.
What audio quality can I expect?
The NB640 supports enhanced codec support for high-resolution wireless audio, providing better sound quality for compatible Bluetooth headphones and speakers.
Does this adapter require external power?
No. The NB640 is powered entirely through the USB port and does not require an external power adapter or additional cables.
What devices can I connect to this adapter?
The NB640 is compatible with a wide range of Bluetooth devices, including headphones, speakers, keyboards, mice, game controllers, printers, and smartphones—any device supporting Bluetooth 6.0 or earlier versions.
