NVR to orbi satelite

Good evening,
 
Apologies if this is in the wrong section. 
 
I have a new Hikvison NVR but cant run a cable to my virgin hub 3. Im looking at buying the Orbi RKB50 2 or 3 pack
 
Any help on how i would complete the setup and could i connect the NVR to the ethernet port in the orbi satellite. Do i get rid of the virgin hub 3 and use the orbi router and satellite. The satellite would be ujp stairs. do i just plug nvr in the ethernet port on the satellite
 
I have no clue on networking
 
Thank you in advance

    There appear to be two issues:

    • How to integrate Orbi WiFi with Virgin Media hub 3.  I have no experience with that.
    • How to connect an NVR to the network.  Yes, connect an ethernet cable from the NVR to the Orbi satellite ethernet port.
