1. Introduction
The IR Extender and the Repeater Boxes are two devices that are perfect
for controlling source equipment over long distances. Through the built-in IR
receiver and CAT5 cable, you are able to control up to five sources at the
same time while being 250 meters away, with their original remote controls.
There is no space limitation with the devices, meaning even if the source
equipment is placed in a different room on a different floor from the display,
the performance will stay the same. The IR Extender and Repeater boxes grant
users a great convenience, allowing you to control and display your desired
media instantly, anywhere, anytime.
