=== IBM Integrated Bluetooth IV with 56K Modem (BMDC-3) ===
This is a combination Bluetooth and Modem Adapter that is installed in a CDC slot.
=== Bluetooth Features ===
* Chipset: Broadcom
* USB VID/PID: 0A5C:201E
=== Modem Features ===
* Chipset: Conexant
* AC'97 Modem
</div>
|}
=== IBM Partnumbers ===
IBM FRU PN: 39T0022 ($37.50 in July 2005)

This part takes the place of the 56K Modem board.
It requires a Bluetooth antenna, and some ThinkPads built without Bluetooth already have the antenna installed -- the antenna wire may be found disconnected and taped under the Modem board.

In addition to the Modem/BT module, a Bluetooth Thinkpad also uses an extra indicator LED below the LCD display, and another indicator LED on the top of the lid. To see these two LEDs, two new clear plates are required. The entire set of replacement sticker plates can be ordered as FRU 26R8409 ($12 as of July 2005). (formerly FRU: 13R2455)

=== Also known (in IBM literature) as.... ===
*

=== Linux Bluetooth driver ===
??

The Bluetooth device is implemented using USB and can be enabled or disabled with the {{key|Fn}}{{key|F5}} key combination
=== Linux Modem driver ===
Although, the [http://www.smlink.com/ Smartlink] driver for Agere modems is able to communicate with the modem via AT commands, it cannot dial out (contradicting reports welcome!).

If your favourite distribution does not include a hsfmodem driver (search for "hsfmodem" or "Conexant"), you can try the one from Linuxant: http://www.linuxant.com/drivers (14k free as in beer, 56k+Fax license 15$, they explain this policy under: http://www.linuxant.com/store/faq.php )

=== ThinkPad's this card may be found in ===
* {{R52}}
* {{T43}}, {{T43p}}
* {{X32}}
* {{X41}}, {{X41T}}
