That video says you can use the upper or lower rails for the panniers. No. Upper rails are too narrow, most panniers will not work on the upper rails. Maybe some would work, but most won't. But, I can't think of a reason to use the upper rails for a pannier.
There are two versions, the EVO is the second version, I bought mine about a decade ago so I am not sure what the differences are. Some other Tubus racks also have the EVO label too.
