Dimensions of US version of Orbi RBK-50 Power Adapter?

What are the dimensions of the power adapter that plugs into the wall for the US version of the Orbi RBK-50?

 

Thank you.

  • 2-3/4" in the direction away from the wall plate.

    3-3/8" in the direction forned by a line between the plug prongs. Extends about 1-1/4" beyond a wall plate that is 2-13/16" wide (+ about 1" for the cord with a tight bend)

    1-1/8" in the remaining direction. You could put two of these next to each other in a 2-outlet wall socket.

  • The answer is "dissapointingly way too big." For something that in most cases has to sit on a piece of furniture, a power brick that sticks out 2.75 inches is a very poor design. Doesn't seem like that much, but when your furniture is 3 inches from the wall when pushed up against the brick that is a very noticeable gap and way too easy for large objects to fall behind it

      You can use a short flat plug extension cord at the wall outlet.
