The maker's US support page lists hardware versions V1, V2 and V3, with a datasheet for each. The three datasheets state the same specs, and the V2 and V3.6 files are identical. The chip, CPU and every measured value in this file come from reviews of the original V1 hardware. TP-Link also sells a Deco XE5300 3-pack, an AXE5300 system with a 516 Mbps 2.4 GHz rate, which is a different spec and is not an alias.
