Nordic 51822 BLE with Arduino Nano

Hello all,

I purchased a Nordic 51822 BLE on Amazon hoping that I can hook this up to my Arduino Nano without any issues. However, once I received it, I realized that a) it is not your usual breakout board and b) can't find any documentation that would explain how to do this.

Just a bit of a background; I am trying to make a BLE MIDI device. I was initially using Arduino BLE 33 and it works great but I wanted to see if I can find a cheaper alternative to the BLE 33. I thought that since teh Nordic 51822 BLE uses the same chip as the BLE 33 that would work since I tried the HM10 module previously but it doesn't support the command set I need.

So, my question is:
a: is there a way to hook up the Nordic 51822 BLE to my Nano or
b: is there any other option I could use

Here is the guide I followed which does work with the BLE 33:

And I am attaching a picture of the Nordic 51822 I purchased on Amazon.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
