Bluetooth Mesh gateway implementation

Hi,

I am working on a Bluetooth Mesh project for lighting control using nRF5340. I am currently stuck on how to implement a Bluetooth Mesh gateway for my mesh network.

Here's what I need the gateway to do:

  • Issue commands to nodes: The gateway needs to be able to send control messages to specific nodes within the mesh network.
  • Receive data from nodes: The gateway should collect data sent by the nodes and forward it to a web server for further processing.

Could you please provide me with some guidance on how to achieve this? Besides, can you suggest Bluetooth mesh gateway models that work with the nRF5340 chip?

    Are there any recommended gateway devices that powered by Nordic chips?

    No, I'm afraid not. 

    Additionally you can check out the nRF Mesh CLI, which is a PC based CLI that simulates the operates the nRF Cloud front end would need to do.

    If you only have an nRF5340 SoC available, how are you planning on sending/forwarding the node data to a web server, as the nRF5340 only has a 2.4GHz antenna for short range protocols like BLE, Matter, Zigbee, Thread, etc.

    Best regards,
