Warranty
Limited One-Year Warranty and Lifetime Product Support
- IR Remote Control Cable: This IR remote control cable extends the signal to a video source like a Blu-ray player so it can be controlled from your TV. The blue LED in the IR receiver bulb verifies signal transmission.
- Home Theater IR Extender: This home theater accessory repeats the IR signal to a DVD player, STB box, receiver, or other A/V source with an IR sensor. Route the infrared remote control extender cable neatly with a wall-mounted TV and install the IR transmitter in a concealed equipment closet to hide a CATV box while still controlling it remotely.
- Easy Installation: Quickly set up this lightweight IR blaster cord. Place the IR transmitter near the source sensor and the IR receiver within line of sight of your remote. For best performance, keep the blue LED on the receiver facing forward—not upward—for stronger signal reception. IR Tx and Rx cables include adhesive backing for secure mounting.
- USB Powered IR Extension Cable: The USB infrared remote blaster cord features an integrated 6-foot Y-cable to receive 5V USB power. Simply connect the USB cable to a TV USB port or a USB wall charger. Note: If the TV’s USB port does not supply power when the TV is off, use a wall charger instead.
