Cable Matters Infrared Remote Extender Cable - 6ft, IR Repeater Kit Cable, IR Extender, USB Infrared Remote Blaster Cord Up to 15ft Signal Range, NOT Compatible with RF Signals

For years we have struggled with contolling the volume of our Sony Audio player connected to our television. Then I wondered if anyone made an IR repeater. The answer was indeed, YES. So I began looking for. Some come with nothing but wires to glue to your devices. Then I saw one that satisfied our needs. It arrived overnight. It had three comonents, a receiver, a USB plug for power, and a transmitter. Perfect. All three were labled - no instructions needed although there were instructions. My wife removed the adhesive from the receiver and placed it on the top of our 80 inch tv. The shee plugged the USB in a spare port and then removed the adhesive from the transmitter and placed it on another corner of our TV. All the wiring is behind the TV. Took us 10 minutes and it works perfectly from 15 feet away. A blue LED lights up steady when a good signal is recived and rapidly blinks if it detects a signal but not strong enough to repeat. I give 5 stars for simplicity, economy, and ease of installation. I would incluide a photo but everything is behind the tv or just poking out where it is barely visable.

Easy install. Great product but beware..almost returned the day after install. Didn’t respond . Finally notice the receiver fell off the sensor so I reattached with Velcro. Works great but secure the receiver next to the infrared tv sensor. Original attaching disc to small.

My previous Samsung tv came with an infrared extender, so I assumed when I bought a new S90C from Samsung, it would have one as well. I was wrong. I have Xfinity and to access their features use their remote instead of the Samsung remote, and the Xfinity remote uses IR to turn the tv on and off. Compounding the problem is the placement of the tv's sensor was such that I had a very narrow window for the remote to target the sensor. Short of standing right in front of the sensor, it would take several attempts to find the sweet spot. Reaching out to Samsung and Xfinity was an exercise in futility. Essentially, both companies basically said I was out of luck. Samsung even said the tv was incompatible with an extender. Fortunately I stumbled across this Cable Matters extender and thought hey, for the price it was worth a shot. The bottom line is that it was easy to install and works like a champ. I couldn't be more pleased with the results.

works as advertised. The only thing i don't like is that whatever remote i point in its direction it flashes. Even my space heater remote makes it flash blue. Also the tape they put on the back is not the strongest. Wire long enough to wire things across my 63" cabinet.

Works perfectly! My wife bought a new gorgeous entertainment center but it has no glass doors or any other way to send an IR signal from the remote to the device when the doors are closed. This little product hooks up in seconds and does the trick! I have the receiver portion of this just barely peeking out from the corner of my center channel speaker that sits on top of the entertainment stand. The cord runs down the length of the speaker and behind the stand down into the stand where it points right at my AV receiver and my 4k player. One thing to note: this is not a programmable type device. It picks up ANY IR signal from ANY remote and transmits that signal to the other end. I did not realize this before I purchased this and actually ordered two of them thinking I’d need one for the AV receiver and one for my 4k player as they’re in the same cubby of the entertainment stand but on different shelves. Not so. Once I realized this I positioned the broadcast portion of the device on the inside of the door of the stand so that it can broadcast the remote’s signal to either device, depending on what remote I’m using. Ultimately I returned the unused second device and just kept the one. I sit about 12’ or so from the receiving end of the device and have had no issues whatsoever sending a signal to the device from my couch. Very cool little product that does exactly what you need it yo do. Highly recommended!

This just arrived and hooked up easily. My Denon receiver is behind a cabinet door and I often need to change the sound mode (from typical Dolby Surround) for TV sports sound or for Spotify music, which requires using the Denon receiver remote. (I can adjust receiver volume using the TV remote via the CEC / HDMI connection.) Opening the door to change the sound mode is a pain, and is visually undesirable. This gadget works so well, as I can now change the receiver sound mode with the Denon receiver remote. It works 30+ ft. away (may vary for different remotes?) and at a moderate aim angle as well. It took 5 minutes to set up, if that. I do anticipate that I may have to replace the 2-sided tape on the IR receiver and transmitter blobs. I got the "6 ft." model and found that the leads are longer than expected, so it was pretty flexible to connect the USB to a nearby power strip and then mount the IR receiver and transmitter blobs where needed. I just estimated where the Denon receiver IR eye was and mounted the IR transmitter blob inside the door, opposite that area, quite approximately. I'm not sure what the IR transmitter's broadcast angle might be. A blue LED blinks on the IR receiver when activated, so you know you have triggered a change. No instructions are included, other that the diagram you can see on the Amazon site.

Seems to work pretty well for my Xbox. I also like that the receiver on this device flashes a blue LED so you know it is picking up a signal when you push a button. My Xbox is in a place that is hard to get a bead on with the TV style remote I got for it, and this product seems to help with that. I stuck the transmitter on a small 1” corner bracket so I could put the transmitter of this device right in front of the receiver on the Xbox. If anyone is also in this situation, the IR receiver on an Xbox series X is built right into the controller pairing button oddly enough.

I put off purchasing this for years, I tried some DIY methods. Worked somewhat. But finally got tired and gave in. Now I can turn the volume up and down on my Onkyo without putting the remote near the ground (It is behind the TV. If I pull tv out then it is easier to get to.) It is plugged into the back of the TV for power, and taped to the bottom of TV for receiver, then transmitter is on back facing the Onkyo.

Funciona adecuadamente. Sirve para mandar la. Señal a los aparatos que tengo en un closet y muy bien. Sólo hay que posicionar bien el emisor para que no haya fallas

Ottimo prodotto, funziona benissimo ed è facile da installare

using it more than 2 years, no issues.

シャープのブルーレイディスクレコーダー(2B-C20ET1)に使ってみたところ、問題なく使えました。 特に遅延もなく、不満ないです。 後は耐久性かな。まだ、使用開始１日目なので、耐久性はまだ分かりません。

My Blu-ray player is in the room next door with the Denom AV in the media box. I was using my tv remote for my Blu-ray player but there were many instances where it wouldn’t work and I’ll need to head into the other room to use the Blu-ray remote. Nightmare. Found this as a solution and it works perfectly. Can also use it for my denom too as they are both in the same box. Very easy to install, wire is thin so easy to get through the wall to the Blu-ray player. Great value for money.
