The communication to the Bluetooth module indeed is UART only.

I think nxp/sdsd_nw61x.bin contains firmwares for both the WiFi and
Bluetooth chip. When using this you can use the Bluetooth UART directly
without uploading a separate Bluetooth firmware.

nxp/sd_w61x.bin only contains the WiFi firmware, so you have to
upload a separate Bluetooth firmware over the UART interface.
