Think of Bluetooth stack comparable to the typical TCP/IP based OSI stack. If you read further on the Bluetooth protocol stack and architecture, you would see the similarities of the OSI stack mappings. As in the traditional OSI layer that you're probably aware of, you have L2 equivalent layer, transport layer, session and application and so on.

If you're thinking of TCP layer, you're looking at L2CAP layer on Bluetooth. Please follow up with the Bluetooth wiki to give you a better understanding.
