RBK852 compatibilty with RBS50Y

Hi,   It does seem Netgear has not yet released an Orbi Outdoor Wifi 6 extender ... So, could the current Orbi RBS50Y be fully compatible with the RBK852 ? Thanks in advance for your comments

Hi,

 

Thanks a lot for your insight.

 

Basically, if my understanding is correct ... should I desperately need to buy the RBS50Y Outside unit, as a consequence, it also means that I have to change my router and purchase the RBR50 ...

 

Thanks
