Ant+ and Bluetooth on the nRF52840

[AlexanderAnt]

Hi,

I would like to use the nRF52840 dongle to connect to 8 devices using Ant+ and to around 8-24 devices using Bluetooth.

• Is there a maximum number of devices of Ant+ that you can be connected using the nRF52840?
• Is there a maximum number of devices of Bluetooth that you can be connected using the nRF52840? (I suppose it is 5-8)
• Can you max out the number of connected devices using Ant+ and Bluetooth respectively at the same time?

Can I use the nRF2840 dongle out of the box as a "normal" bluetooth dongle/ ant+ dongle? I'm looking for a dongle providing Bluetooth and Ant+ at the same time.

Best and thank you for your tolerance with my rather newbie questions

Alexander

Last thing to add, the transmitted data volume is very low and doesn't represent a boundery concerning the number of connected devices... (Ant+ Heart Beat Measure devices, Bluetooth 8-16 WitMotion WT901BLECL with data transmission 20HZ and 8 Heart Beat Measure devices with data transmission 1HZ).
