 It should work with all WICED platforms that contain a Broadcom Bluetooth chipset.
 
 The maximal baud rate is limited to 3 mbps.
 
 The port uses the generated WIFI address plus 1 as Bluetooth MAC address.
 
-The examples that implement a BLE Peripheral/provide a GATT Server use the GATT DB in the .gatt file.
