https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/74702/thread-with-coded-phyHello, I&#39;m working on a project with the nRF52840 PCA10056 board. I want to use Thread protocol. But I&#39;m not sure if Thread supports Coded PHY, a feature of Bluetooth 5.0. Can Thread be used like BLE Long Range or Thread distance can be increased? en-USTelligent Community 13Tue, 04 May 2021 11:34:02 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/308151?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 04 May 2021 11:34:02 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:aa497b92-59a3-4c16-90d0-2a5ddc5ac688Charlie<p>Agree with Andrew, Thread&nbsp;is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC and PHY layers at the bottom, and the&nbsp;<span>IEEE 802.15.4 standard supports a 250 kbit/s data link at a range of 10m. If your applications need langer distance, you may need to add relay device or use other solutions like BLE long range.</span></p> <p><span>Best regard,</span></p> <p><span>Charlie</span></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/307998?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 03 May 2021 16:32:07 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:fc630d72-5e6c-4a81-92ea-705c43e72b1fawneil<p>Thread doesn&#39;t use Bluetooth at all - it&#39;s IEEE 802.15.4</p> <p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(network_protocol)">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(network_protocol)</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.threadgroup.org/What-is-Thread/Overview">https://www.threadgroup.org/What-is-Thread/Overview</a></p> <p><a href="https://openthread.io/">https://openthread.io/</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
