nRF52840 maximum data throughput

How many nRF52840 chips can be used simultaneously? Can all data and advertisement channels be used at maximum capacity (2Mbps/each) to result in an overall throughput of 2Mbps*N where N is the number of nRF52840 chips < # of channels available?

Thanks

  • I have worked with nRF51822 and nRF24L01+ in the past and have written proprietary protocols to get 2 Mbps. With BLE 5.0, if running several chips chips on both sides and parallelize the stream, what is the "available bandwidth in the radio"? There are 37 data channels and 3 advertisement channels in the new BLE stack, but with hopping, it is unclear to me how many independent channels you can fit there.
