Maximize range on nRF52840 pdk

daguro

How do I maximize range for BT5?

I have two nRF52840 pdk units and I have loaded the ble_app_att_mtu_throughput app and tried it out. I have been seeing around 70 meters range before the link drops out. What can I do to get maximum range?

    What do you mean by "default" Tx Power value? There is only default value of that register and then default value decided by app which is HW&FW specific (use case + certification constrains + HW limits). Hard to say why Nordic decided to remove that function call from the example but it probably doesn't matter. For some reason they don't want +4dBm but 0dBm, you can change it easily and recompile (btw. nRF52840 should support up to +9dBm).
