  • ONEKEY BRIDGE, USB Bluetooth Connector for AirID and OKID


Hardware Features


ONEKEY BRIDGE is a USB Bluetooth connector for AirID. The purpose of the ONEKEY BRIDGE is to use AirID with devices that do not support Bluetooth low-energy by default, or have an unstable BLE connection. Additionally, if you want to use your reader on multiple devices without pairing it first to each device, the ONEKEY BRIDGE is the best choice. Once the reader is paired with the ONEKEY BRIDGE, the reader can be used with any other device in that OKBRIDGE is plugged-in. Connected directly to a USB port, it enables wireless communication - without driver installation. Supported by any CCID-enabled systems like macOS, Linux and other platforms.


  • USB 2.0 Type A connector
  • Bluetooth version 4.2 supported
  • Stores up to 10 device pairing information
  • Miniature dimensions: 48 mm x 37,5 mm x 14 mm
  • Detection of OKBRIDGE as a standard CCID card reader
  • Supported operating systems: Windows 7, 8, 10, macOS (min 10.12) and Linux (plug&play requires libccid 1.4.28)
