Inteset 38 to 56 kHz Wideband Infrared (IR) Receiver Extender Cable for Cable Boxes, DVR's & STB's. Check Compatibility.

This is a great deal and works perfectly, I purchased this when we got a new media cabinet and a component that required line of sight for the remote to work was now going to be inside a cabinet behind a door. Luckily that component had an IR input in the back. We plugged this in and then stuck the receiver end to the bottom of the cabinet. Now we just need to point the remote to the lower left corner of our cabinet and voila! The remote works perfectly, including to turn the component on and off. And its pretty much invisible unless you know exactly where to look.

It works! I ordered 4 different IR extenders. This was the only one that worked with my Specturm Technicolor 4742HDC2 cable box.

I just switched to Spectrum TV. The problem that I knew I would have was being able to hide it behind my TV mounted on the wall. I was told they had newer boxes that had RF but that was not sent and still not sure if that is true. So as for the this Extender I could not be happier. What I did was plug it into the back of the box before powering it up. Then mounted the box on the backside of the tv out of sight. Placed the extender in sight of where we sit and Presto ! it worked like a charm :-) So for now until the RF systems are sent out this seems to be the perfect solution. Hope this helps anyone that need to do the same thing. Ps. there is only one spot to plug this in on the back of the Cable box. Take Care, GrandpaJake :-)

Several reviews say it does not work. Used for ESHOWEE X96 Mini TV Box and had no problem. Suggest buyers make sure before purchasing that the remote frecuency is compatible with IR signal range. If it is not, this sensor will never work.

Does not work with stereo receiver even though it has IR in/out. Bummer

Worked with an Emotiva processor. Exactly what I needed.

Well the Inteset 38-56 kHz Wideband Infrared (IR) Receiver Extender Cable for Cable Boxes, DVR's did just that. I plugged it into our Arris VMS1100 cable box and voila all of a sudden the remote worked like never before. No more entering numerous times to get some command through. I even turned the remote away from the IR Receiver about 45 degrees and it still worked. Fantastic product, great price, wonderful plug and play installation. If you need an extended this is the one you should buy, it works perfectly right out of the box. Love it.

I recently purchased this IR sensor for a spectrum cable box and Samsung 4K player. I got a 3.5mm splitter and 2- 3.5mm to optical to plug into both the 4K player and cable box. Got everything plugged up and tried using the remotes but it did not work. Is there some kind of sinking process that needs to be done.

working

works well with my particular set top box (Roger's Next Box) the device is in another room and can be remotely controlled

Used with a Cisco Cable receiver....works one time out of two....very disappointed
