1. Introduction
The Infrared 4 by 4 Matrix is designed to control your source devices from be-
side your display/receiver. Using the original remote, you can control DVD/
Blu-ray players, satellite and set-top-boxes and with a cross matrix design this
device gives the ability to send infrared signals from place to place. When
used with an HDMI/converter matrix, this brilliant product will allow you to
freely manage your sources and displays. Simply place the IR receiver near
the display and put the IR blaster in a position so that all devices will be able
to function properly, even when they are hidden in a cabinet or placed far
