Essential Info

The Xantech ML85K LCD Proof Designer Micro Link IR Receiver Kit is a small peep-hole infrared repeater assembly. The Micro Link IR Receiver is equipped with a 7-foot cable and a 3.5mm stereo mini plug, which is plugged directly into the "IR RCVR" jack on the connecting block, such as the models 789-44, CB60, and 791-44. The Micro Link IR Receiver is primarily intended for use in installation where the connecting block is within reach of its 7-foot cable - as when installing the Micro Link IR Receiver in a cabinet where the controlled equipment is behind closed doors. The ML Series Kit comes with everything needed for a complete IR repeater system. With a Xantech IR Kit, equipment can now be concealed for clean room design. In addition, a centralized IR receiver means there is only one IR target resulting in improved remote control interaction. Featuring color-coded connectors, a Xantech IR Kit is now an easy to install, and allows a worry-free installation. This version of the Micro Link receiver is Plasma/LCD/LED/CFL proof, so you can install it anywhere in a room with a Plasma/LCD/LED display and/or CFL lighting; it is even resistant to sunlight.

Smarthome also offers a similar product under the Smarthome brand name - Smarthome LCD Compatible IR Receiver Kit with Flush Mount Sensor.

    excellent product at an affordable price. used this to connect 2 HDTV's to a single cable box, works great.
    DAMIAN -- oviedo, FL   7/23/2011
    Installed easily, works well. I transmit a signal 50 feet from my kitchen to my "computer room" whole house audio system. The extension cable #8186 made the extended connection easy.
    RYAN -- calgary, AL   5/15/2011

    This is a great product. Installs very easily. Works as described.
    JEFF -- colleyville, TX   4/1/2011
    This works exactly as I hoped, and was simple to install. The cables were long enough and the pieces are all well-made. I bought a Harmony 650 remote to run everything and couldn't be happier.
    MICHAEL -- new york, NY   2/27/2011
    Excellent service and fast shipping. Highly recommend.
    KEITH -- bay city, TX   2/26/2011
    Great piece of equipment. Works as advertised, easy installation and thanks to the sales department in helping make the decision to buy this unit instead of another.
    BRADLEY -- erie, PA   2/18/2011
    This IR Receiver works very well. I installed the eye in a cabinet, and you dont even know it is there. The range is excelent and is very responsive. I would recommend this product.
    RICHARD -- birmingham, AL   2/6/2011
    terrific product which works perfectly so I can keep everything out of the room.
    BARRY -- cedar park, TX   1/29/2011
    Product was as advertised, and arrived in timely manner.
    KERA -- ashland, KY   1/9/2011
    Very nice unit. Easy to setup/install. Components actually respond more positively to remote input through this unit than they did "standalone"!!!
    RICHARD -- martinsville, VA   1/7/2011
    Xantech system works great,easy installation. My main reason for using this kit was to control my Directv receiver located behind my TV. It works everytime you press a button, unlike using the remote control in RF mode. I wished I had bought unit long time ago.
    VALERIE -- pensacola, FL   1/3/2011
    This receiver kit did exactly what we needed it to do. Our equipment is in a closet around the corner from the flat screen tv which is mounted on the wall. It has given us a nice clean look. No wires and boxes to clutter things up.
    JOSE ARTURO -- calexico, CA   1/2/2011
    Excellent service, come right and in place, has been working just as i tough.
    BEN -- birmingham, AL   12/24/2010
    Everything perfect.
