AXR-RF RF Receiver
Product Information
The AXR-RF Radio Receiver provides wireless reception of AMX radio frequency (RF)
transmitters. The AXR-RF connects to an Axcess Central Controller with an AXlink, 4-pin captive-
wire connector. When required for large areas, or multiple-room coverage, multiple receivers can
be connected in parallel on the AXlink bus.
