Any RB(K)it mean that there is 1 RBR### router and 1 or more RBS### satellite included in the box set. So yes any RBS750 from a RBK7 series kit will work with a RBR750.

30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

the main reason for asking the difference is I was thinking of buy 2 of these, but wasn't 100% they were satellites, it says they are in the description but the K in Rbk threw me
Just be aware that the RBR can not operate like a RBS. It only supports router mode or ethernet connected AP mode that would be connected to a host router upstream from it and would not integrate into another Orbi mesh system.
