Russound RFR-E5 Installation Manual
RFR-E5 ChARGING CRADLE
The RFR-E5 and cradle use a two-way RF link which enables the remote
to send control commands to the system through the ACA-E5 controller
and receive metadata feedback from the system and smart sources. The
cradle communicates with the controller over a 10/100/1000 (1Gigabit
recommended) Base-T Ethernet network via the CAT-5 RJ45 connector on
the rear of the cradle.
The cradle is powered by a detachable power supply that plugs into the
rear of the cradle. The cradle provides the remote with the appropriate DC
voltage for battery charging through two contacts when docked in the cradle.
