Is Alro Ultra compatible with my exisiting Arlo Pro2 Base VMB4000r3

Hello Lovely peeps,

I currently use and Arlo Pro 2 (base station:VMB4000r3) with 4 cameras. I am planning to buy 1 Arlo Ultra to go with the existing setup. I have an Arlo Premier Subscription too.

Will the Ultra add on Camera be supported by the Arlo Pro2 base station I have? I have researched and got mixed responses from the forums/ documentation.

Please advise?

Yes the 4000 is compatible with Ultra. The Premier is 2k the Elite s 4K. It comes with a 1 year free subscription to premier and not the elite that has added to some confusion here. I have seen conflicting reports of recording 4k locally to smart hub without a plan in 4k.

Hi @vidhu

As @dcfox1 mentioned, the Ultra camera is compatible with the VMB4000 base station.
