Essential Info

Xantech started with its field-proven IR receiver technology and added interference rejection and exceptional IR range. This sensor is highly resistant to IR Interference caused by LCD televisions, electronically ballasted fluorescent lighting (CFL), or sunlight.

Only 1 CFL-resistant IR sensor can be used in any one room. Any additional CFL-resistant sensor in the same room will prevent proper system operation.

This product is not compatible with Scientific Atlanta HD8300 series cable boxes. If you have one of these boxes you would need to use the plasma proof versions listed here.

What's Included

291-80 Compact Fluorescent Resistant Table Top IR Sensor

CB12 connecting block

More Info

Adjustable IR carrier frequency (32 to 56 kHz) allows matching to actual component being controlled. Maximum IR reception range of up to 70 feet on-axis; range depends on remote and level of IR interference. Comes with a 7-foot cable and 3.5 mm stereo mini plug and a one-emitter connecting block.

Use this shelf-top IR receiver when you can't drill into a cabinet or other enclosure and use the smaller hidden sensors. This sensor is approx. 1" high by 3.25" wide, and includes a 'talkback' LED so you'll know the command was received and sent to the emitter.

Extend the reach of your sensor with a 50 foot male to female cable. This three-conductor cable has 1/8" male and female plugs molded onto a high quality cable. Requires 12V power supply, sold separately.

Reviews

"The 8160S IR Emitter, 8110CFL IR Receiver, and 81941 power supply are all working “OK” to help us send video, audio and remote control signal through our Bobcat -AVR Composite CAT5 adapters and then over our CAT5 LAN so we can patch satellite TV to our office cubes. However, either the receiver is too sensitive or the IR emitter is too strong as we can only get the whole set up to work when we set the receiver sensitivity dial down to low, and then point the DirecTV remote control towards the receiver at a 45 to 90 degree angle. Pointing the remote too close to the receiver floods the system and it won't take input from the RC. We don’t know if something is broken or if it’s a limitation or quality issue of the emitter and receiver. It works OK so we’re just sticking with it." - TRAVIS - PORTLAND, OR

"works perfectly. a tad pricey, but totally gets the job done, and this one works fine with the LCD on (unlike the unshielded one I tried first), which is pretty important, isn't it?" - HAROLD - ROCHESTER, NY

"Did not work with my components." - VINCENT - BOLIVIA, NC
