Hey there , i would like to connect some ble devices to the HA using external Bluetooth dongle,

it seems that the default dongle is the external one i have connected,
how can i tell if the HA connected using this dongle or embedded dongle in the PI?
( i need to extend the distance so the one in the pi is not good).
this is the info from pi
pi@hassbian:~ $ sudo bluetoothctl

    scan_interval: 40
    adapter: hci0
    mac: '4c:65:a8:d9:6c:a6'
    monitored_conditions:
      - temperature
      - humidity
      - battery      ```
