Hi.
Bluetooth has quality of service constraints that would probably break down
over longer distances, or when sent down ethernet. That is probably why you
cannot find bluetooth extenders.
The trick would be to try and extend the cable before it becomes bluetooth.
I.e. long cable -> bluetooth
Instead of bluetooth -> long cable -> bluetooth

I have been looking for something that I assumed would exist but appears
not to.
A farmer friend has a solar array some distance from the house. The
inverter is housed in a steel shipping container. As part of a more complex
setup there is a controller which senses when there is excess power being
generated and will reduce the generation. A function of the controller is
the ability to switch on loads via a bluetooth signal. The loads are a
socket adapters equipped with bluetooth. The adapters are intelligent and
can tell the controller how much power is being used. This is great it
everything is within bluetooth range but in this case it is not. Ethernet
is available however.
I had hoped that there would be a pair of devices that could simply repeat
the bluetooth signal across ethernet. Has anybody heard of such a device?
Thanks
Roger
