OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

The 

Russound XTS7 is an elegant, in-wall touchscreen with a 7” display 

and a quad-core processor running the Android™ operating system that 

enables you to install and run apps from the Google Play Store. The XTS7 is 

pre-loaded with the Russound App, perfect for controlling your compatible 

Russound audio system, but the XTS7 is free to control any other smart home 

devices in your home such as your lights, shades, etc.  

The XTS7 comes with 16GB of storage for additional apps and there is a 

microSD card slot that allows expansion for up to an additional 256GB of 

storage.

The XTS7 offers unmatched convenience in controlling your smart home. 

The wall-mounted design is always available for your use, meaning that you’ll 

never have to search for your phone or tablet in order to start controlling 

devices in your home. You can keep your most important apps like those for 

your lights and music on the home screen, instantly available for your use.

The XTS7 is also easy to install and supports both wired and wireless network 

connections. A PoE (Power over Ethernet) connection simplifies the wiring by 

allowing a single network cable to carry both the network data and the power 

to the touchscreen. If a Wi-Fi connection is preferred, the XTS7 also offers a 

12V DC connection to supply the required power.

HIGH RESOLUTION DISPLAY

The XTS7 uses a 7” 800 x 1280 display capable of reproducing 16.7 million 

colors. It features projected capacitive touch technology, the latest touch 

technology used in smartphones and tablets, enhancing its responsiveness 

and performance.

ALWAYS AVAILABLE CONTROL

By mounting a touchscreen on the wall at the location of your choosing, your 

smart home is now instantly more accessible. It’s no longer necessary to 

fumble for your phone or tablet before being able to turn up the volume of 

your favorite music, mute the sound when you need, or adjust the lighting in 

the room.  The XTS7 is pre-loaded with the Russound app for controlling your 

compatible Russound audio system, but it is also ready to install your favorite* 

apps from the Google Play Store.

WIRED OR WI-FI

The XTS7 is 802.11 b/g/n compatible with an integrated 2.4GHz antenna.  Use 

a Wi-Fi connection whenever a wired ethernet connection is not possible to 

achieve.  A wired ethernet connection can utilize a single-wire connection to 

a PoE switch or PoE injector, simplifying the installation while minimizing the 

risk of any radio interference or poor Wi-Fi reception. The XTS7 will work with 

both EIA/TIA 568A and 568B wiring. When using Wi-Fi, a 12VDC@1A power 

connection can be used instead of PoE.  Only a single power connection is 

required, either PoE or 12VDC.  Inadvertently connecting both will not affect 

the unit as the PoE connection will not draw power if the 12VDC connection is 

active.

ENHANCED SECURITY

Because the XTS7 runs Android, you are free to use the native Android 

security features such as a PIN-protected screen lock.  This is ideal for 

commercial installations where access to the apps on your XTS7 should be 

protected from wide access and only operate to designated persons with the 

PIN code.
