Is the SXK30 just as good as the SXK50 when using Wired Backhaul?
Is the SXK30 just as good as the SXK50 when using Wired Backhaul? From what I can understand, Orbi uses a dedicated wireless backhaul band that can't be used for clients even when someone uses on...
I realized all the wireless devices on my network will be 2x2 and 80Mhz (or whatever is lower). So I can just save the money for now and upgrade down the road.
Just got the SXK30B3 delivered so will give that a go first. Technically I have the SXK50B2 on backorder as well but will probably end up cancelling that.
The user-facing wireless on the SXx30 systems have just an AX1800 access point each and 80 MHz bandwidth support on 5 GHz, in the wireless backhaul case sharing the AX1800 (1,200 + 600) Mbps with the wireless backhaul, typically 1,200 if the backhaul can be 5 GHz.
The SXx50 systems have AX5400 access points on each device including 160MHz bandwidth support on 5 GHz, for the AP part its a AX3000 system. In the wireless backhaul case, the AX5400 (600 + 2,400 + 2,400) Mbps system does reserve 2,400 if the backhaul can be operated 5 GHz. A lot more benefit IMHO.
