Essential Info

Infrared (IR) remote controls have limited range and generally only work in the same room as the audio/video (A/V) component it controls as line of site is needed for communication to occur. The IR to RF to IR Remote Control Range Extender Kit, uses an internal transmitter that converts your remote's IR signal into a radio frequency (RF) signal, giving you the ability to control your components up to 100 feet away, through walls, floors, doors and windows. Simply slide one of the rechargeable batteries into the transmitter and switch that out with a battery in your remote control; it works with remotes using AA or AAA batteries (AA sleeve adapter included). When the remote control is used, the IR signal is converted to RF and is sent to a small, AC-powered receiver (RF base station), which is placed facing the components you wish to control. The receiver then converts the signals back to IR and sends them to your components, all in a fraction of a second. Ideal for home theater setups that have components behind closed doors, you have the freedom to move throughout your home and control components that are out of sight. This device operates on a 433 MHz RF frequency; it is also available in a 418MHz RF Frequency.

Important Note: This kit is NOT COMPATIBLE with remote controls using built-in rechargeable battery packs.

Manuals/Software

What's Included

  • IR to RF transmitter
  • Mini AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries (quantity 2)
  • AA adaptor sleeve adapter
  • RF base station
  • Emitter with six foot cable
  • AC power adapter
  • More Info

    The internal RF adapter has a AAA-size transmitter and AA-size sleeve, so it can extend your existing remote control's operating range, regardless of which type of battery it requires. It will work with almost any remote control you'd like. Want to use it with more than one remote? Not a problem: add as many Extra RF Transmitters, sold separately, as you'd like. For homes where maintaining the décor is a prime concern, the system can be hidden from view by using the included Bright Eye Emitter, an unobtrusive, adhesive-backed LED at the end of a 6-foot cable. You can even use the same remote to control components in multiple areas of your home using an Extra Receiver for the IR to RF to IR Remote Control Range Extender Kit, 433 MHz.

    Reviews

    "This unit is very nifty and works very well. It is extremely easy to set up with the simple instructions provided. I have a cable box in a hall closet hooked up to my LCD flat panel TV in the living room. It took a little experimenting by moving the base unit around in order to receive the strongest signal. That only took a minute or two and the system has worked great ever since." - RONALD - JOHNSTOWN, PA
    "This item works as advertised and the service from SMARTHOME was very good. I would recommend SMARTHOME & the IR to RF Extender." - BILL - AUBURN, WA
    "This works great. Several of my neighbors have seen mine and want one of their own. Controls my upstairs stereo from my neighbor's back yard." - ERIC - EVANS, GA
