 I am working on a project that uses distance measurements (DM).

&lt;p&gt;We have not done any tests with the Distance Toolbox in terms of maximum range. The deviation of distance measurements must be expected to increase with distance, as there will be more interference from more sources the further away you get. The range you&amp;#39;ll be able to achieve and quality of the signal is mostly dependent on the environment you&amp;#39;re deploying the devices in, and testing should be done in similar environments to get reliable test results.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I personally would not expect better accuracy than 1m at 100m range in a no to low noise environment, but this is mostly educated guessing on my end. At 500m you should be able to keep a BLE connection in a low noise environment, but the distance measurement will likely not be very reliable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
