It’s abnormal. It should be at least 30-50 meters.

CC2530 without CC2591 can have 30-50 meters line of sight transmissions. You should make sure your HW is good first. It’s not much related to SW.

Hi,

Try running the same software on your PCB and on a CC2530EM + SmartRF05. If the performance is only bad on your PCB, you will need to check your PCB for hardware issues.

If you think wifi module might impact the range, you can disable it when you test CC2530 to verify it.
