Hi,

The nRF Sniffer does not support extended advertising, so you cannot use it in this case. It is better to test with a recent phone (that supported advertising extensions), as described in this post.

You can refer to the Running Speed and Cadence Application for an example of extended advertising. The length can be up to 255, see this post.

The SoftDevice and nRF5 SDK does not support periodic advertising so that is not an option (assuming that is what you want when you use the board term extended advertising). The SoftDevice does support some other extended advertising features though, but then it is key to know which features you actually need.

Hi,

There are some examples of extended advertising in the nRF5 SDK, but please remember that extended advertising is a set of extensions. All are not supported. Specifically periodic advertising is not supported by the SoftDevice, so you cannot do it with the nRF5 SDK. If you use the nRF Connect SDK you can refer to the Bluetooth: Periodic Advertising sample.

Hi,

Novel Bits have a good description of Periodic Advertisements here (search for "Periodic Advertisements"). In short periodic advertisements allows you to synchronize the advertiser and the observer so that the observer knows then the next advertisement packet comes etc. This is somewhat similar to data exchange in a connection, but with some major differences. Firs of all, it is still advertising, so no retransmission etc, so data loss will occur. Secondly, several observers can receive the same periodic advertisement packets.
