nRF Connect SDK Mesh + iBeacon coexistence

[Jacob B]

We are currently developing an application for nRF5340 using the nRF Connect SDK which requires bluetooth mesh + iBeacon coexistence.  Are there any resources/examples available to help with this?  Any pointers would be much appreciated.  Thanks!

Hi Jacob

I'm sorry, but we don't have any support for Bluetooth Mesh on the nRF5340 as of yet in NCS. This is a work in progress, and you can contact the Regional Sales Manager of your area for a roadmap on when this is expected. You can fill out our Sales Related Questions form if you'd like to get in touch with your RSM.

So if you'd like to have Bluetooth Mesh you'll have to use the Zephyr stack directly for now. The same goes for iBeacon, which is also just available in the Zephyr stack as of yet.

Best regards,

Simon

Hi Simon,

Thanks for you're reply.  We are using Zephyr and have had both iBeacon and mesh examples running seperately.  We need to run a mesh network simultaneously with an iBeacon, is this possible with Zephyr and if so is there any documentation/examples for this?

Thanks,

Jacob
