According to ReQuest’s official product information, the F3 is a networked multi‑zone audio/video server that supports Maestro control and can be operated via IR (infrared) for the on‑screen GUI ReQuest+1. The ReQuest support site lists F3 IR codes and an IMC/MP remote protocol, which means the system is intended to be controlled by a compatible remote, but the documentation does not state that the remote is shipped with the unit ReQuest.

In practice, many ReQuest F3 units sold through dealers or resellers (such as Audiogon) are listed as coming with a remote control and two USB IR receivers Audiogon. This suggests that some sales bundles include the remote, but it is not guaranteed in the standard manufacturer’s package.

Key points:

Included in box? Not guaranteed by ReQuest’s official specs; some third‑party sellers list it as included Audiogon.
Remote compatibility: Yes — ReQuest provides IR codes and remote control protocols for the F3 ReQuest.
Control options: You can also control the F3 via Maestro (tablet/mobile), web interface, or other integration methods
ReQuest.

Recommendation:
If you want to be certain, check the specific product listing or ask the seller if the remote is included. If not, you can purchase a compatible ReQuest IMC/MP remote or use the provided IR codes to program your own remote.

Does the ReQuest F3 Include a Hard Drive When Shipped?

No — the ReQuest F3 does not ship with a hard drive installed; it is delivered with a solid‑state operating system and no media storage, and you must order a specific hard drive or SSD model for storage.

According to ReQuest’s official product information, the F3 is available in multiple configurations:

F3HD‑SSD – solid‑state operating system, no media storage
F3HD‑320 – 320 GB hard drive
F3HD‑1TB – 1 TB hard drive
F3HD‑2TB – 2 TB hard drive ReQuest

This means the base F3 unit you receive from ReQuest will not have a hard drive pre‑installed. You must select and order the version with the desired drive capacity, or add one yourself, before shipping.

The F3’s design allows up to three NAS devices to be added, and it supports both traditional hard drives and solid‑state drives, but storage is not included in the standard package

The ReQuest F3 is a highly capable media server that supports gigabit Ethernet, multi-NAS connectivity, and multiple audio zones. It is ideal for home automation, high-quality audio playback, video streaming, and integration with professional control systems. Setup requires careful IP assignment to NAS devices and the F3 server to maintain network stability and multi-zone performance

For further details, including step-by-step networking configuration and multi-zone setup, the F3's user manual is available online and contains detailed diagrams and instructions for Ethernet and NAS integration.

ReQuest F3 Audio/Media Server Network Usage (10/100/1000 Mbps)

The ReQuest F3 media server is designed to operate over standard Ethernet networks, supporting 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (Gigabit) speeds, and is typically used in whole‑house audio/video systems, home theater, office entertainment, and yacht AV setups ReQuest+1.

Network Interface and Speed Support

The F3’s Ethernet port is a standard RJ‑45 port that can negotiate 10BASE‑T, 100BASE‑TX, or 1000BASE‑T depending on the connected switch/router and cable category ReQuest+1.

10 Mbps – Legacy or very low‑speed networks; not recommended for modern streaming.
100 Mbps – Adequate for small, low‑bandwidth setups.
1000 Mbps (Gigabit) – Recommended for multi‑room audio/video, streaming services, and multiple media sources ReQuest.

Typical Deployment Scenarios

According to ReQuest’s setup and integration guides, the F3 is used in:

Whole‑house music and video entertainment systems – distributing audio/video to multiple zones via a central server ReQuest.
Home theater and AV integration – controlling playback, streaming from NAS drives, and integrating with control systems (e.g., Crestron, AMX, RTI) ReQuest+1.
Office or yacht AV – providing networked media playback and streaming for multiple rooms ReQuest.
Multi‑location access – allowing remote or local control of media playback via NetSync, Maestro, or IR/TCP/IP control ReQuest+1.Network Configuration Notes
- Static IP recommended outside the router’s DHCP range to ensure consistent discoverability by MediaPlayer, NetSync, or Maestro ReQuest.
- Same VLAN for server, media players, and any NAS devices when using AV bridging kits (e.g., K62) ReQuest.
- Gigabit Ethernet is preferred for high‑bitrate streaming, multi‑zone audio, and video playback ReQuest.
Practical Example
In a typical home theater, the F3 is connected via a Cat6 or Cat6a Ethernet cable to a gigabit‑capable switch, which in turn connects to the home router. The F3 streams music, video, and control commands over the network to connected media players, while also integrating with AV control systems and NAS storage ReQuest+1.
In short: The ReQuest F3’s network interface supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet and is used in high‑end whole‑house AV, home theater, office, and yacht entertainment systems, with gigabit Ethernet recommended for optimal performance ReQuest+2.
Bottom line: The F3’s 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port is technically capable of aviation‑class network speeds, but it is not certified for aviation use. It can only be used in aircraft if the operator, certification authority, and engineering review confirm it is safe, compliant, and acceptable for the intended mission.
