Z440
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Need to add Bluetooth connectivity for Wacom graphics tablet. Will any of the small USB port adapters work on the Z440? Basic stupid question, I know. But sometimes these workstations can be a bit quirky.

 

Examination of hardware shows no Bluetooth  built in.

 

TIA!

workstations are not "quirky" in regards to following industry specifications....... Due to their positioning in the business market they actually follow industry specs quite closely unlike many consumer based systems

 

your "Wacom" tablet will list the "minimum" Bluetooth revision it requires

any quality name brand BT adapter of that revision (or higher) will work those cheap 99 cent no name BT dongles are not recommended for business usage

 

in general, BT transceiver revision 4.2 or higher should work
