Essential Info

There is no longer a need to leave entertainment cabinet doors open simply to use your IR remote control. The Dinky Link Designer IR receiver is intended to be used with a Xantech connecting block, power supply and emitters, each sold separately, to create a system that will allow you to control audio and video components behind solid doors or walls using your existing IR remote. This version of the Dinky Link is LCD and CFL proof, so you can install it anywhere in a room with an LCD display and/or CFL lighting; it is even resistant to sunlight. It can be mounted to almost any surface using the included double-sided foam tape. The Dinky Link's small size help to hide it amongst your AV components or behind a speaker grill. Up to four can be connected in series. The use of this Dinky Link receiver along with the related connecting block, power supply and emitters will leave you with the clean lines of your entertainment center without looking at unsightly stacks of equipment and cables; enabling you to continue using your existing IR remote up to 30 feet away with the confidence it will communicate with your AV equipment behind doors and walls.

This product can also be purchased as a Dinky Link Designer IR Kit, LCD & CFL Proof, which includes a connecting block, power supply and four emitters; sold separately.

This product is not compatible with Scientific Atlanta cable boxes or AT&T U-Verse boxes. If you have one of these boxes you would need to use the plasma proof versions listed here.

HEBER -- alamogordo, NM   1/5/2010
Great product, great service, I would say only that your telephone customer service response (smarthome)time is too much, maybe you need more personeel there, everything else % STAR!!!!
JERRY -- wylie, TX   11/22/2009
works great. installed it and have had no problems, every now and again the led light flickers when no one is using a remote but nothing changes. i'd buy it again in a heart beat.
ANTHONY -- woodland hills, CA   10/19/2009
Works as advertiesed. Plug and play.
EDWARD -- asheville, NC   10/16/2009
So far I am unable to "tune it" so that all components work. I can get all to respond except the Sat TV/DVR box.
