RBS50v2 compability
Hello, I am interested in ordering an Extra satellite for Orbi AC3000,
MPN RBR50v2 is my current Router My question is if anyone know
if the satellite must be RBS50v2 which I have 1 of today, and want to
expand with another. Those who I´ve asked and who sell loose satellites
only have RBS50 that they deliver, not RBS50v2, will it work
with an RBS50 for my current v2 router?
Best regards from // Goran

Yes it'll work.
You can use any of the following:
RBS20
RBW30
RBS40
RBS40V
RBS50
RBS50Y
Keep in mind the rbs50 series use the wider 1733mbps backhaul. The lower versions do work but they run at their 866mpbs backhaul link speed.
you can also use the EX7500, EX7700, EX8000. They don't fully integrate like orbi does but they do work
