Mesh networks on Nrf52840 Dongle

Hello

We have a project of energy meters with mesh network.

There are some parameters important for us:

  • Time of reconfiguration
  • size of network
  • connection range
  • delays
  • data throughput
  • Power consumption

We understand that most of them are very depends on. So we want to make some tests in our conditions. In conclusion we want to choose a mesh network.

As I know the nrf52840 support three mesh networks: BLE Mesh, Thread and Zigbee.
We want to set up the same configuration (1 gate + 3 nodes) on different types of network.

It will be great if gate and nodes will be implemented on nRF52840 Dongle due to form factor.
But we can't found any software examples of mesh networks on nRF52840 Dongle. It's declarated that the EVM will support them, but we don't know when.

How we can build this test system?
