The "Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research" (FAIR) will consist of several synchrotrons and storage rings dedicated to target experiments as well as in-situ experiments. One of the in-situ experiments is ELISe, a head-on collision of a heavy ion beam in the new experimental storage ring (NESR) [1, 2] with an electron beam prepared in the electron ring (ER). The vertex is placed in a bypass to the NESR where both rings have a common straight section. To prepare the heavy ion beam for collision with the bunched electron beam circulating at a fixed repetition rate a dedicated RF system called high harmonics cavity system (HHC) operating at a frequency of 44.7MHz is needed. The HHC will be realised as a disk-loaded coaxial quarter wave resonator. This paper deals with the actual development status of this RF-system, including analytically derived voltage demands, multipactor thresholds and considerations on input coupling and higher order mode (HOM) damping.
