I think that is almost correct.  Only Orbi AC satellites from the residential product line are compatible (not "Pro", not "AX") except for the RBS10, which is a "dual band" product rather than a "tri band" product.  This is frustrating because the RBS10 is the least expensive satellite that is readily available now that Amazon has raised the price on the RBS40V from $100 to $160.

Thanks for the clarification
