What is difference between this and the other one called Transmission system with IR repeater? I'm so confused,

This one is just the receiver. The Transmission system with IR repeater is the one you would need if you're just setting up your system. It includes a transmitter, receiver, and the IR repeater. You can buy additional receivers if you want to add more components in to your system.

It will work over cat-6. The main difference between the two is there is an isolator in cat-6 that reduces crosstalk between the lines, so you get a cleaner signal. I have used my repeater system for years now and it is seamless. Hope this helps!

It is IR, and it will also block your other IR devices while it is in use (I can't use my TV remote when the Helo is flying, the IR signal over-powers the remote signal, I have to land it to change channels or volume, etc.)

The ir receiver is 20' away from where I sit and the equipment is 6' away from the tv. The repeater has to be stuck right on the equipment. The repeater or receiver can be mounted anywhere as long as it's cord will reach.

this is an IR extender device. Any IR signal that goes into it on one and will be replicated on the other. It does not know or care what manufacturer or remote the signal comes from. It is a dumb device in this instance. That is the best thing about it.there is no i_r device on the planet that it will not work with.if it doesn't work with any particular IR device, then it's either broken or the user set it up wrong.

i am sorry, but i have no clue as to what you are talking about. i bought my ir receiver to get my remote signal in another room. that is all i know about them.

There's a Harmony PS3 adapter for about $30 that converts your IR signal from Harmony remotes and converts them to the PS3 signal. Much cheaper than the Harmony Hub remotes.

Remotes will work without an IR repeater. The cabinet has glass doors on the front allowing remotes to work without a repeater

If each piece of equipment is different, then an ir blast won't work if it's for something else. So, I would say use 1 emitter on each to keep things simple.

To give an example of how this works, consider a room with a projector in the rear of the room and the rest of the equipment in the front. When you point your remote toward the equipment in the front, without the IR blaster, the projector wouldn't receive any signal. When hooked up to a RF hub like the Harmony Ultimate or Smart Control hub, the IR signal for the projector would be 'blasted' toward the back of the room to control the projector without having to point the remote toward the projector.

The Transmitter comes with a port for the IR Extender, and Harry told ME that he would send me one if I sent him a mailing box. I can't find it online at all. I wish Christopher would tell ME where to get one. I can't find it ANYWHERE online.

It is my impression that the signal from the remote is transmitted via the repeater nearly instantaneously. Because I use a universal remote to control most of my devices, it sends separate signals for each device so there is a "blink, blink, blink" to start the TV, satellite box and sound system. Each of those devices take a second or two to power up, but the repeater unit doesn't cause or add a delay to the process.

I've been in other environments where we have had other "repeaters" working in conjunction, but I've never done it with this particular model. Double check with manufacturer.

Repeater is the link from car to door opener, they communicate constantly. Codes are always changing so someone doesn't steal your opener code.

There is an IR repeater that will send your IR signal from your cable remote to the other unit. So you can use your cable remote.

Hello, I used a Universal Powerblaster IR repeater with a previous model of SONY Receiver-Amplifier with great results. I did not use the IR repeater with the STRDH830, but I see no reason why it would be different. Here is the link to the Powerblaster http://www.universalremote.com/products/retail/base-stations/urc-mrf100-powerblaster

Not sure about your specific products but it is not true that all IR extenders wore with all IR remotes There are some cable boxes that work in an IR freq range that is not always covered - most products work together but I went through all this a year or so ago and verified some systems are not compatible - had to do a lot of work to get the freq coverage
