Technical Specifications for Orbi Satellite Model RBS50
The following table shows the technical specifications for the satellite.
Data encoding standards IEEE 802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz–256 QAM support
IEEE 802.11 a/n/ac 5 GHz–256 QAM support
Maximum number of
computers per wireless
network
Limited by the amount of WiFi network traffic generated by each node (typically
50–70 nodes)
2.4 GHz: 127
5 GHz (front haul): 127
Operating frequency range 2.4 GHz:
• 2.412–2.462 GHz (US)
• 2.412–2.472 GHz (Japan)

802.11 security WPA-PSK [TKIP], WPA2-PSK [AES]
1. Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual throughput can vary. Network
conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network
overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
