If you butt a rectangular waveguide to a circular waveguide will have some
return loss mismatch issues.
It would work to a certain extent but you will not have as much tx power as
you should and you will have RX loss.
Yes, everything else is the same. I would give it a try. It will probably
work in a pinch but best to fix it right for the long term.

Subject: [AFMUG] PTP800 ODU
Anybody know if an 11GHz PTP800 ODU will mate with a Trango dish? I know
the PTP800 ODUs are Remec rectangular, but the Trango dish is Remec
circular. But aren't the physical interface dimensions the same? The
Trango dish is just a round hole, so no plate to rotate to change polarity.
Got a dead ODU on an ApexPlus-11 and I think I can get my hands on a
PTP800 ODU-B. I know Cambium/Ceragon has single and dual pol IP20/PTP820
Remec adapters now, so we're debating whether to fix the one end with
this or just swap to PTP820's.
