ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, method and system to route object exchanges beyond clients and object exchange (OBEX) servers in close proximity with one another. The present disclosure further provides the ability to route OBEX communications across a communications network such as the Internet. The present disclosure also teaches that a bridge device may support both short range RF communications, such as Bluetooth, and TCP/IP communications. The present disclosure tracks and enables OBEX enabled clients to send and receive information far outside their immediate wireless transmission range to remote servers.
