The keypad features soft-touch buttons for easy access to Volume Up/Down, Power, Play/Pause, Skip Forward/Backward, and four Favorite buttons for storing and recalling Favorites. The IPK-1 also features a Status LED that can light different colors, indicating the current status of the keypad and selected audio zone. The IPK-1 includes a pre-installed white Decora insert and an additional black Decora insert.

Compatibility: The IPK-1 is designed to work specifically with Russound IP-based audio systems including the MCA-66, MCA-88, MBX-PRE, and MBX-AMP.
Connection: The IPK-1 communicates to the controller/amplifier through standard CAT-5/6 cable connected to the same network via a PoE Switch (CAT cable and PoE Switch are sold separately). The IPK-1 is PoE powered via 802.3af through a CAT-5/6 cable connected to a PoE Switch. Cable runs for zone keypads should not exceed 300' maximum.
