Hello,

[quote user=""]I saw that Nordic have examples in the nRF Connect SDK for AWS IoT and serial LTE modem and I saw that they are applicable also for nRF52.[/quote]

There is a nRF52 sample which is applicable to use with the Serial LTE Modem application, which is used to emulate a stand-alone LTE modem on the nRF9160. The nRF52 client for SLM is used to issue AT commands to the SLM application form e.g. BLE connected device.

[quote user=""]Can the AWS IoT example be used as a controller for external third party cellular modem?[/quote]

No, this is written for the nRF9160 cellular device. You will need to rewrite quite a lot to work with a third party cellular module. Perhaps looking at the e.g. Generic GSM modem chapter in the Zephyr repo is a better place to look? This also includes a Generic GSM modem sample.

[quote user=""]Do you have similar examples for nRF5 SDK? if so, should i use the NRF5 SDK over nRF Connect SDK?[/quote]

For our new customers we encourage starting with the nRF Connect SDK. Have a look at the Working with nRF52 series guide

Kind regards,
Øyvind
