Dear Nildo,
The camera is exactly the same. The only thing we have changed is the name.
Best Regards,

Hi Nildo
One of the differences is that the Optihub 2 supports the flex-13 cameras, while the Optihub1 does not.. (different power requirements) in your case, they will work just fine.. I have a mixed system too and I have no issues..

Re: "V100:R2" Re-branded as "Flex 3"
Hi Brian,
Thx alot for the reply
I was using the old dlinks and the old r1 cameras, previously...and now im using the hub2 with 12 cameras r2 (now flex13), but i have one more camera id like to use so as to be a 13 camera system, initially i was having problems on the pc, it was recognizing not 12 individual cameras, but 6x2 cameras, you know two 1x , two 2x and so forth...i figured that i had to sync the 2 hubs witha sync cable, and after doing that they worked without issues, is this the correct workflow?
if so then if i need to connect the other 2 hubs, and buy more cameras, can i use the sync cables like i did the first time?

Re: "V100:R2" Re-branded as "Flex 3"
Is the Flex v100 r2 or Flex 3 compatible with Arena 1.3.5?
I ordered and r2 off of Ebay. However, after double checking the compatibility chart I don't see Arena 1.3 for R2.

Re: "V100:R2" Re-branded as "Flex 3"
Hi AVTProMan,
As the online compatibility chart lists, the Flex 3 (V100:R2) is only compatible with ARENA 1.5+
If your intended application allows you to use Motive, I would suggest purchasing a new license and using the current software. You could alternatively purchase enough license updates to use a compatible version of ARENA, but please be aware that this software is retired and no longer covered by Support.
Thanks,
Steven
