Will the Ubiquiti Nanostation M5 connect to the Nanostation 5ac Loco as a base station?

Question

Computer networks

There were two Nanostation M5, the base one began to flash red and green lights (a cursory google came to the conclusion that this is apparently death), I think to buy 5ac Loco (distance 1km, here, in theory, any loco should be enough), so that it is inexpensive and there is a reserve for the future . Question - will the old M5 and the new 5ac Loco make friends?
And another question - will the old PoE adapter from M5 fit 5ac Loco?

Answer 1

No problem, everything is compatible, both pieces of iron operate in the 5 GHz band.
A PoE injector is also suitable from an old device.

Answer 2

It will work, but the old point will not allow you to use the delights of the new AirMax AC protocol.
