HI, Kurt and Bruce,
There is some netgeart AC+AP solution for wifi5, like WC7600 + WAC720 in netgear.com .But no any AC model for WAX610, Does it mean that Wifi6 AP do not need AC.

These were controller based solutions, available with .11n and .11ac APs - dead end.

Orbi Pro WiFi 6 and WAX610 are of course also supporting 802.11ac (and earlier standards) wireless devices - just like the NETGEAR consumer WiFi 6 devices do.
There are many more APs along with the WAX610, but with "just" 802.11ac support, for example the WAC505, WAC510, WAC540, or WAC564 which fit into the line, and be local Web UI as well as Insight managed of course, too.

I'm afraid, don't understand what you try to ask here.

No. Local or Insight management only.

Only Orbit system matching Satellites can be used as Satellites.
My previous question to Netgear was intended to figure out if adding any WAC5xx or WAC6xx under Insight management would allow adding these as wired access points retainig the VLAN and WiFi features.
