is there anything in hardware preventing the implementation of &quot;Data Length Extension&quot; in the current hardware?https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/5298/is-there-anything-in-hardware-preventing-the-implementation-of-data-length-extension-in-the-current-hardwareBluetooth v4.2 included an ability for attributes to be greater than 20 bytes of payload data long. Is there anything in the nrf51822 hardware that would prevent this from being implemented at some stage in a later SoftDevice?

So with regard to HW there&#39;s no limitation on implementing this.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
