If you hide your home theater equipment inside a cabinet you've got a nice uncluttered room, but you have to open the doors to use your IR remotes, and that is sub-optimal. The solution is to get an IR Wired Repeater from Monoprice!
This single-band repeater has a single IR receiver bulb on the end of a 1 meter long cable. It also includes four dual output IR transmitters, with 2 and 4 meter length cables each, which provide enough outputs to control up to eight AV components. The repeater works with IR remote controls that operate in the 37~39 KHz frequency range.
Note: Our IR repeater only supports single-band frequencies and may not be compatible with dual-band frequency devices.
Some devices that have been reported to work include:
-
