Can I use nRF52840 dongle as standard ble dongle ?

[VB]

Is there a possibility to use nRF52840 dongle as a standard ble dongle to enable bluetooth services on my pc ?

Hi,

No, that is not supported.

Hi, I have the same question as VB asked.

Since 4 years has been passed, is there any way to use nRF52840 as standard BLE dongle now?

Do you have firmware example?

Thank you.

Hi,

We do not have any specific support for that, but if the host system is Linux, then you can use the controller on the nRF and use HCI over USB. This is supported in the nRF Connect SDK using Bluetooth: HCI USB. This will not work on other host operating systems, though (for instance not Windows).
