Only big difference is the wireless backhaul on the 20 series is maxed at 866Mbps while the 50 series does 1733Mbps.
The 3Gb is a combination of 1733+866+866 on the 50 series.

30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
