  Diamond Light Source presently operates for users with 300mA beam current and initial tests have begun to upgrade this current towards an ultimate goal of 500mA. The implications of such a beam current increase for the storage ring RF system will be significant, including the installation of a third superconducting cavity and a possible modification of the coupling parameters of the existing cavities. An overview of the planned enhancements of the RF system is presented, including an update of the procurement of a new CESR-design cavity and options for installation and operation of this cavity and supporting infrastructure.
