 What is the practical maximum throughput of nRF proprietary protocol? The following table showing ESB and GAZEL has 1.3Mbps and 128kbps respectively.

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gazell can send a payload every 2nd timeslot, where the timeslot can be down to 600 us (which means 1200 us per packet) for 32 byte payload:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1000 000 us / 1200 us = 833.33 packets over 1 second = 32 * 833 * 8 bit = ~213 kBit/s. This is theoretical and assumes no collision or lost packets on-air.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For&amp;nbsp;nrf_esb, 1.3 Mbit/s is reasonable. You can get closer to the on-air data rate if you disable ACKing, but then you do not know if the receiver actually receives anything.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kind regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Håkon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
