BLE 5 compatible sniffer

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2540

Hello,

I really need a reasonable priced BLE sniffer that supports both LE 2M and LE Coded PHYs that BLE 5 introduced. The only solutions I seem to find commercially available are really expensive (from Ellisys & Frontline)

When will you introduce an update of CC2540 sniffer dongle or something similar that supports BLE 5 features? If not soon, is there any BLE 5 compatible sniffer that you can point at?

    Hi Gamli,

    Since the Bluetooth 5 spec is relatively new, there aren't very many options for BLE5 sniffers. The CC254x is unable to support Bluetooth 5 and there are currently no plans to develop Bluetooth 5 sniffing firmware.

    I would recommend making the investment in the Ellisys or Frontline sniffers.
