"Wired" Bluetooth anyone?

Former Member
Former Member over 16 years ago
Hi all,
I am looking to use a single coax cable, say 10m long, for both power and data transmission between 2 units, which are sealed in their own metal boxes with no possibility for external antennas.
The power signal is 100-500kHz, 20-100Vp-p AC wave, close to sine, but with some harmonics on it. I really need AC for power on this coax because one of the units can be on a rotating table in a sealed metal chamber. The only way to transfer power is a rotating transformer.
I am hoping to put 2 embedded RF modules, preferably bluetooth, into the 2 boxes and connect them to the coax via capacitive or inductive means to protect them from the power signal. 
This way, I hope, the coax will replace the antenna in between the modules and will shield them from external interference.

I would appreciate any comments on this idea.
Thanks,

    I don't think it gonna work.

    The power line will be effect by the RF signal, I think. And for RF signal, impedance matching is very important and the transformer will ruin this, I'm afraid.

    I think if you neeed communication between this two bluetooth module and need provide power from one case to anotehr case, it's better to use both power line with power line filter and coxial cable seperately.

    Does anyone have other opion or solution for this?
