English term or phrase: short-range wireless, digital cordless and VoIP technology
XXX, a leading provider of highly integrated power management semiconductor solutions for portable devices including Smartphones and Tablet PCs, is pleased to announce that it has completed a transaction to acquire YYY, a leader in ***short-range wireless, digital cordless and VoIP technology***.

Wie würdet ihr das übersetzen? Bezieht sich "short-range" nur auf wireless oder auch auf die anderen beiden Aufzählungspunkte? Und was ist der genaue Unterschied zwischen "wireless" und "cordless"?

agree  Olaf Schmechel: ... na ja, "Kurzstreckenfunk" klingt in meinen Ohren aber eher nach "Walky-Talky" als nach "Smartphones and Tablet PCs" + MfG, Olaf

  -> Danke! Warum nicht? Im Kontext, steht ja ausdrücklich 'portable devices'.
