Basically with these items you will be able to power the R5C at 8K 60p with lens functionality.
The red colored adapter (Indi Pro) is from the USA at Indi Pro Tools dot com. But there is another one on Aliexpress which has a different brand label in addition cheaper! It's called Soonwell PD100W on Aliexpress.
The dummy LP-E6 adapter you can use any brand. Smallrig, Anton Bauer (mine came withe the R5C as a promotion with Anton Bauer Kit Battery Titon Base which I use put on the DJI RS3 Pro), Kondor Blue and Tilta.
This setup allows you to use any V Mount battery brand that has 2 D-tap outlets which is pretty standard.
The Smallrig V Mount batteries however also has the USBC outlet providing PD* power which essentially eliminates the Indi Pro/Soonwell adapter solution. But I found I had to plug and unplug the USBC to get PD* going, and in addition would cause issues with other accessories to not power. So this Indi Pro adapter solved those issues as well as give all my other branded v mounts a chance to be used 😊
Finally any USB-Type A from the Vmount will NOT provide enough power to get PD going.
*PD = USB PD
