Help with provided cradle

Just bought the AC1900, the cradle is huge and magnetic.

Can Instead use the cradle from my older A6210 (ac1200) adapter?

      Guess that's the stand with the USB 3.0 extension cable allowing to set-up the adapter some inches away from the computer. As the AC1200 and the AC1900 are USB 3.0 devices, and not talking about the possible differences of having a heavy (big mass) ground for the radio antennae, and as long as the thing does not tilt, why not.

       

      Standard support answer will be to use the equipment which come with the product of course.

        So then the cradle itself not THAT important and the cradles of both models not really different?
