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.

What's Included

  • IR to RF transmitter
  • Mini AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries (quantity 2)
  • AA adaptor sleeve adapter
  • RF base station
  • Emitter with eight 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 an 8-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.

    I received the order in less than 1 week - shipped to Canada. I have several walls in between my remote and the Remote receiver and it works very well! Easy to install too. Would recommend.
    BRENDAN -- riverview, NB   4/25/2012
    Amazing product, replaced the last one I bought from a good online shop, but it was pure garbage. This has little to no lag, and you don't need to point it at anything!
    KEN -- miami, FL   4/18/2012
    Works great, I can operate my remote in front of my TV while my recorder is on the other side of the house in a closet.
    RICHARD -- channahon, IL   4/6/2012
    product did not work was returned for credit
    JOHN E -- rochester, NY   4/5/2012
    We use it in our church to control a projector about 75 feet away, and it works flawlessly, (we had tried a Radio Shack version which proved unreliable ) Very happy with it.
    RICHARD -- calgary, AB   3/28/2012
    Works and performs as advertised. Very satisfied with it.
    PETER -- poeldijk, XX   3/15/2012
    It's working great in The Netherlands! Just changed the power adapter. At first I thougt that the charging process went wrong, but after some time it appeared to be charging anyway. We are very pleased with this gadget!
    LAWRENCE -- wynnewood, PA   3/1/2012
    Item works as advertised, however my Comcast cable box is not picking up the infra red signal. Easy to set up.
    CHUCK -- madison, WI   2/22/2012
    Great product and easy to install and use. Chuck
    BERNARD -- bayville, NY   2/21/2012
    The remote only works when it is near the cable box. Any distance, and it only turns the tv on and off and the volume control works - channel selection doesn't work. We have a Verizon wireless system that I suspect might be causing interference, but I didn't see anything about this in the packaging or when I researched it at your web-site. Most disappointing that it doesn't do what it says it will.
    WILLIAM -- toronto, ON   2/9/2012
    excellent
    RAHUL -- calgary, AB   1/30/2012

    ELWOOD -- paducah, KY   1/23/2012

    TROOPER -- cookeville, TN   11/29/2011
    Hands down this is the best IR to RF to IR Remaote. Easy to use, just and pack and plug in.
    CURTIS -- houston, TX   11/26/2011
    With Comcast controller, difficult to keep it from randomly skipping up more channels or pages when in menu mode. For example, press menu and page up and it might jump up 20+ channels. Also does not respond on first try.
