Description
Since IR remote control signals need "line-of-sight" to work, you will need this extender if the equipment you're trying to control is hidden out of sight such as in a cabinet or A/V Closet.
How This WorksThis kit includes an IR receiver, a connecting block, and IR emitters. The IR receiver is a small device that you can mount on your HDTV's bezel or anywhere else in the room where you will want to point your remote. It is small and very easy to hide, but must be in line-of-sight to your couch (or wherever you will be sitting when using your remote control). This IR receiver receives your remote control's commands and sends the signal to the connecting block. |
 |
| The connecting block then actively repeats and sends the same signal through all IR emitters connected to the block. You can tape the emitters directly to your equipment or simply fix them to a nearby shelf or wall as long as they are pointing at your device. |
