Can using whitelist reduce Connection Time?

Can using whitelist on Central and Peripheral reduce the connection time? In my example I want to advertise every 3secs and want to make sure that the central connects to peripheral within 10 secs that is in 3 advertisement cycles?

If not Whitelist, what all techniques or methods can I use to reduce the connection time?

I would also suggest that you take a look at the documentation for the peer manager. Peer Manager and Using a whitelist Br, Joakim

Hi.

Yes, using whitelist can reduce the connection time. Using whitelist the device will use directed advertising which can reduce the connection time.

Does this mean we need to have whitelist on peripheral side as well as on central side? Can you please point me to a good example for peripheral as well as for central in how to use whitelist?

No, you don't need that.

I can see if I can find an example for you. Are you working with NCS or nRF5 SDK? And which version are you working with.

You can look at the ble_app_hrs and ble_app_hrs_c example. If you have any questions, please let me know.
