Peripheral Role and Bluetooth mesh simultaneously in nRF52832

[Arepa]

I want to build a device able to connect with smartphones and central modules preinstalled on the ecosystem.

Is possible to integrate Bluetooth mesh + Peripheral role in the same Device? I want to use Bluetooth mesh to extend my range inside a building and use it as a repeater 

Is there any example of mixing both characteristics in the same device, similar to peripheralal+central+Thread

Or...Is most favorable for my set up use a Mesh proxy server/client?

Hi Arepa, 

 

Yes, you can have BLE and Mesh running at the same time. We made an example that you can download here (scroll down for latest SDK implementation). 

Another option is to use your device as a mesh proxy node. However, that requires you to implement mesh stack on your central node as well.
