I've never tried a config between 2 different orbis of the same generation. its generally not recommended between different routers. You can always make a backup and give it a try.

You'll even find them on things like shopgoodwill for cheap.

The only orbi outdoor satellite was the RBS50Y. It still sells for quite a bit even on the used site because of its rarity.
