nRF9160 : What is the API for transferring TCP data with UART?

[CWallach]

I'm designing a system with a main processor and a LTE modem, currently looking at the nRF9160.  I flashed the at_client firmware into the dev board. Using a Nordic supplied firmware image, can TCP data be transferred between the UART and a web site? If so, what is the procedure?  nrf91_at_commands_v0.7.pdf doesn't list any data transfer method.

Thanks

Hi,

Are you looking for a sample that pipes UART to a TCP connection and vice versa? That would be similar to the BLE app UART example for Bluetooth Low Energy in the nRF5 SDK. Unfortunately we don't have any such example, so you need to make it yourself. For reference you can have a look at other samples using TCP, such as nRF9160: Simple MQTT.

Regards,

Nordic ought to be aware that other vendors have LTE chips that pipe UART data to a TCP socket without changing firmware.
