I do not recall ever seeing the specifications for the RBS50Y power connector. Ordinarily, I would recomend that once you have it in hand, you can measure the connector that fits into the Orbi and order an "extention" with matching connectors. 2.1mm x 5.5mm seems to be the most common for 12v. I have done this with security cameras and Infrared lights.
Alas, the Orbi connector is a "right angle" type, which is MUCH less common. The only other solution that comes to mind is to "splice in" a section of wire. Buggers the warranty, but can be as long as you want.
