Yes, you can reference our end device QDID's for nRF52832, which includes the RF-PHY part, since the module vendor has verified that the module is within the specifications for RF-PHY.

As Philip mentioned we cannot use the module BMD-3XX since its a "component":

"QDID 101625 was qualified as a Component. Components are intended to be incorporated into a Subsystem or End Product through the Qualification Process with Required Testing."

So can we just add the "138862 | End Product | nRF52 Series with S132 v7.0.1 q-c" and do the "no required testing" qualification with this QDID only?

Thank you for your help!

Hi. We are in exactly the same situation with a product using the BMD-350. Would be interested to hear if you found the answer to your problem? Did you just go with the Nordic QDID?

As you said, it is impossible to add the BMD-350 QDID to the list when going down the 'No required testing' route, because it is a component not an end product. The Bluetooth website won't allow it. You can only add the Nordic QDID, not the BMD-350 and also not both.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay. The support staff is reduced during the summer holidays, and you may experience delayed answers.

you use a module, this has already done the BLE SIG certification: datasheet, QDID 101018

You still need to do listing of the end product at BLE SIG, but you can use the "No required testing", and reference our QDID and/or the module vendors QDID.

QDID's for nRF52832

Since this is a module, and they have already done the RF-PHY test you don't need to do an RF-PHY retesting.

If you would have done the design around the nRF52832 your self, you would also reference our QDID's, but then also do an RF-PHY retest, to make sure that you are compliant with requirements for RF-PHY, for you costume design.
