What is a "Mesh Network"?

Short Definition

Networks set up in the Connect Mesh App are based on the Bluetooth Mesh technology and are therefore called "mesh networks" as a short form.

Mesh Network

A mesh network is a network topology where many devices can be interconnected through many-to-many communication. This is the basis for Bluetooth Mesh and is optimized for building large networks, which are ideal for building automation.

A Bluetooth Mesh network is a group of nodes sharing a common network key. Each node (Mesh device) is a device and member of the Bluetooth Mesh network.
