The investigations of the ultra steep spectrum radio source RC J0311+0507 (4C+04.11) in radio (RATAN-600, VLA) and optics (6-m telescope SAO RAS) are presented. The identification of a strong line at 6703 Å with Lyα gives a redshift z=4.514. The object belongs to the group of extremely distant radio galaxies of ultrahigh radio luminosity (P1400 = 1.3 × 1029WHz−1).
