Actually, which is confirmed by looking at the pictures, the RP2D is a SINGLE radio. The RP2V is a dual-radio box.

So when you have both, you will need asset of cavities at the repeater called a triplexor. It’s designed to handle 3 different frequencies, the transmit and receive of the voice repeater and the transceiver for the data portion.

The RP2D is essentially just two ID-1's in a rack mount box.
