New cable box upgrade question

I received a notification while using my existing box that I needed to upgrade it. I followed the on screen prompts and was told a new box was on its way. The box arrived and it is the same box I already have. Actually it is older, because it is an older revision letter. Current box is xg2v2-s. New upgrade is xg2v2-p. What happened? Did they send the wrong box?

The -S box is probably a Samsung, the -P, Pace. See "Pace and Samsung XG2" on https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/x1-hub-vs-companion-box. The Pace box is slightly more capable.
