Overview

  • Allows use of an IR remote on equipment that’s behind opaque doors
  • Enhances remote control performance for up to 6 A/V components
  • New slim design, side sensors, and 6’ sensor cable allow more flexible positioning
  • Blue "Talk-Back" LED confirms receipt of IR commands

Essential Info

If your A/V equipment is housed behind an opaque cabinet door or in a closet, IR remote signals will not be able to reach it. Hot Link Pro solves this problem by routing the IR signals into the closed cabinet or closet. This allows you to keep equipment out-of-sight and out-of-reach of inquisitive little fingers, dust, and dirt. The high sensitivity of the Hot Link Pro receiver can also extend the range of your remotes.

What's Included

  • Hot Link Pro
  • 120 volt AC to 12 volt DC adapter
  • More Info


    Simply mount the Hot Link Pro receiver through a hole in the cabinet, closet wall, or in some other convenient external location, route the cable inside the cabinet or closet, and attach the emitters to your A/V equipment. Hot Link Pro's IR receiver gives you even more flexibility than previous models with its new slimline design, a side sensor, and a 6' cable running from the sensor to the Repeater Box. Hot Link Pro also features a cool blue "Talk-Back" LED that blinks to confirm receipt of IR commands.

    Hot Link Pro includes 6 emitters attached to a 7 ft. ribbon cable that can be easily split for running emitters to different components. A 120 volt AC to 12 volt DC adapter is included. For use in 220/240 volt countries, use a locally obtained 220/240 VAC to 12 volt DC, 100 mA adapter.

    If your home theater system grows to more than 6 components you can always upgrade your Hot Link Pro by purchasing a Hot Link Pro Expansion Kit and Emitter Extension Kit. These parts provide you with an additional 6 emitters.

    Do you already have more than six components? Try the Hot Link Pro X12, and control up to 12 separate audio and video components through your cabinets. Add an Eye-with-Y adapter, and your Hot Link Pro will be able to receive IR commands from a second IR remote, ideal for whole-house IR distribution systems.

    Perfect. This is what I was looking for since a long time. Thanks
    GREGORY -- clamart, XX   7/21/2011
    So far, this product is perfect and works as expected.
    R A -- saint george, UT   1/20/2011
    works fine!
    DEAN -- midlothian, VA   1/14/2010
    Great way to hide components. Works great. It comes with a blue status light that blinks constantly, so I just disconnected that light.
    CALVIN -- lethbridge, AB   8/24/2009
    Works very well once the sweet spot is found for the "eye". Cheaper option than a Harmony remote. I now have a very clean media shelf and very smooth viewing area.
    SIDNEY -- brooklyn, NY   7/9/2009
    This item worked easily for me. It was simple and quick to hookup. I just wish the sensor had more glue or tape, but I knew the tape would be an issue since I read other reviews.
    PARHAM -- wayne, NJ   6/28/2009
    Working very nicely. Occasionally it seems the LCD TV output spikes and blocks the signal but works most of the time and works well.
    MYRA -- jackson, GA   1/24/2009
    Works well easy to install and is very sensitive so follow instructions closely.
    MIKE -- kailua, HI   1/8/2009
    Product was just as advertised. So sensitive it works completely out of sight behind the LCD TV screen. Loses some sensitivity with distance. Sales staff very good at recommending correct products. I got this one because it was the only one that supported the Scientific Atlanta cable remote. There are many options for extending remotes but none work perfectly in all situations. Do not buy without asking questions to ensure you get the right product for your setup-especially if you have cable.
    LEWIS -- kenner, LA   12/8/2008
    This product worked just as described. Had no probplem with the installation. I've had no problem with the remote sensor not picking up the signal. Was everything I was looking for.
    BRIAN -- new york, NY   12/1/2008
    Product delivers as promised!!! Great solution for hiding your equipment.
    JIM -- westborough, MA   11/13/2008
    Works well - solved the problem and the tips on placement were helpful.
    JAMES -- smyrna, GA   10/30/2008
    works like a charm
    JONATHAN -- los angeles, CA   10/23/2008
    When my TV goes on the reapeater light stays lit. Jamming up the IR and doesnt allow me to use it. Your product is garbage.
    ANTHONIE -- philadelphia, PA   7/10/2008
    I got exactly what I ordered and it arrived just when promised. Thanks Smarthome.
    JOHN -- chocowinity, NC   6/13/2008
    Works well when the right angle is achieved.
    SCOTT -- san juan capistrano, CA   11/18/2007
    Works as advertised ONLY if the remote is within 10 feet.
    STEVEN -- dearborn, MI   11/18/2007
    I have bought this product for my parents LCD TV and they love it. So I bought one for my brothers, and my self. It is truly a great product.
    STEPHEN -- san carlos, CA   11/11/2007
    Perfect
    JAMES -- montclair, VA   11/7/2007
    This product works exactly as advertized. Installation was very simple. I replaced a two Leap Frog systems I was using to control three components inside a cabinet of my entertainment system. The Leap Frogs were often slow to react to to my remotes signals. The Hot Link Pro is a quantum leap in response. I mounted the receive in the entertainment center behind my Panasonic plasma. Wish I has switched sooner. This is an excellent product. Recommend to anyone.
