So you've got your stereo system speakers installed on your back porch and you can enjoy your music, but you can't change the volume without running back into the house and physically adjusting the volume control on your receiver, and you don't want to install a wall-plate volume control. What can you do? Why get this IR Remote Control Extender from Monoprice, of course! This wireless IR extender converts the IR signal into an RF signal at 433.92 MHz, for transmission to the receiver unit, up to 100 meters away, through walls, doors, ceilings, and floors, or whatever. At the receiving end, an IR cable with three bulbs repeats the IR signal from your remote to up to three individual components, so you can use it up for your receiver, DVD player, and satellite receiver, for example. The extender operates in the IR range from 30 60 KHz, allowing it to process the newer Dual Band IR signals. Note that the IR transmitter bulb cord connects to the receiver with a 2.5mm "mono" plug and has cord lengths of 39", 58", and 78". If you wish to extend this to a longer distance, you can use our 3 ft 2.5mm audio extension cable. However, if you need to extend it further, you can use a 3.5mm stereo audio extension cable. With the 3.5mm cable you will also need a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter at one end and a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter at the other end.
