Is it possible to Connect Multiple centrals to single peripheral nrf51 dk?

[Pranay]

I want my nrf51422 dk acting as peripheral should able to connect multiple mobile phones near to it. How I can achieve this?

as far as I know, that is currently not possible

(although in the link its about nRF52 I assume it's the same thing for 51)

Hi Pranay,

No it's not possible for nRF51. Maximum one central can connect to the peripheral.

But it's possible now with nRF52 using S132 v4.0.2. Now up to 20 connections simultaneously are supported doesn't matter if they are central or peripheral connection. We released S132v4.0 just a few days ago.

That's Great news!!! Can you tell me which example in SDK13 will be useful for me in this case to connect multiple centrals to a peripheral?

Please have a look at the \examples\ble_peripheral\experimental_ble_app_multiperipheral example
