## Overview

The X10 Powermid PM5900 is a powerful infrared remote control extender kit designed for professionals seeking a sleek, clutter-free entertainment setup. With a robust 100-foot transmission range that penetrates walls and floors, it enables seamless control of multiple A/V devices from another room. Its simple plug-and-play installation requires no batteries or complex wiring, making it ideal for multi-room systems or hidden equipment. Compatible with virtually all IR remotes, the Powermid ensures your devices stay out of sight but always within reach.

## Description

Extend your remote's reach with this two-piece system from X10. It can transmit your remote's signals through walls, floors, and furniture. It's perfect for folks who want to conceal their A/V gear inside a cabinet or closet for a clean, stylish look. And with its 100-foot range, Powermid is also a great option for multi-room audio/video systems. Simple to set up and useGetting started is a snap. First, plug the transmitter into a standard power outlet, and place it in a location where you can comfortably aim your remote - beside your television, for example. Next, plug the receiver into a standard power outlet, and position it in front of the audio/video components you want to control. Once you've set up both units, you can send commands to your gear through using a multi-brand IR (infrared) remote control. You probably already have some of these around the house, from your TV, DVD player, cable box, or other common A/V components.How Powermid works You could have two remotes operating at the same time, etc. However, the biggest problem with the PowerMids is not interference at the transmitters, but rather at the receiver - which has a propensity for picking up signals that it shouldn't (close by Wifi devices, nearby TVs, phones, etc), and creating IR noise that both prevents the repeater from working, but it can also make controlling the TIVO within the same room impossible (the TIVO sees too much IR signal and stops accepting any of it).

Review: Excellent! Just plain works and works very well - I am totally impressed with this remote control extender. I have used the other types that use an IR receiver and you tape the repeater device on the front of your equipment. They work, but only if you put your electronics in a closed cabinet in the same room. I wanted to get the clutter of my electronics out of the room so that I would only have a wall mounted HDTV in the room with no cables showing. I read the reviews on this Powermid Remote and thought I'd give it a try. My surround sound system, DVR/Cable box, Blu Ray, DVD recorder, and 3rd DVD players are all hidden away in a credenza in a bedroom with an HDMI switch and single HDMI cable that I ran through the wll to the TV set. I was concerned about this working with the equipment closed up in a small cabinet with the face of the equipment very close to the door which practically blocks the IR sensors. I'm happy to say it works flawlessly even in that situation. It even allows me to hook up the DVR and Blu Ray player to my bedroom TV too without paying the extra monthly cost to the cable company. Set up is easy, in fact really nothing to it. Place the transmitter unit in the room you want to sit in, and the receive unit (the one with the antenna), near the equipment to control. They plug in so there's no batteries to worry about. It's that simple. One unit works with all of my remote controls. I've had no trouble with any of the devices I'm controlling. I had to laugh at the reviewer who said the top is sharp and he worried about his kids til I opened the box and touched the top. He was right.. they are sharp. I would not hesitate to buy another one if I needed more. It is extremely good!
Review: Quality product at a reasonable price - This IR remote extender is very easy to install and worked well the first time I tried it. The transmitter is sensitive enough to receive IR signals from remotes at 15 feet. I tried a Harmony One and a Harmony 300i. The reviewers that needed to be within 5 feet to get a signal through might have remotes that don't emit very strong IR signals. The "angle of attack" needs to be pretty close to face-on (remote needs to be fairly well-aimed at the transmitter), and once and a while it will take a second key press to get the signal through. But if you're closer than about 12 feet, it is more forgiving. My receiver is about 45 feet from my transmitter, on a different floor, through several wood-frame walls. Didn't try it at greater distances, but no problem from this far away. The biggest problem I had was aiming the receiver (the unit with the antenna) at the devices. There isn't room in the cabinet to place the receiver in front of the devices, so I had to place it on a shelf about 7 feet away, at about a 45 degree angle from straight-on. Works well from that position. I could use the external LED emitters (I already have a couple from a Sony MRD-D1 video modulator system that I could adapt), but it doesn't seem necessary. The devices are small and unobtrusive, although I agree that the pyramid shape is a little strange. I would prefer something more rectangular which would fit in tight spaces a lot better. The angled front surfaces make it somewhat hard to aim at the best angle to the remotes and devices. But I have to rate this product 5 stars, because it is so easy to install and works so reliably.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great multi-room too
*by A***R on July 18, 2008*

I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents. Most of the reviews I have read about the Powermid are where someone put their A/V gear in a closet in the next room or in the basement directly below the living room. These weren't very helpful to me in solving my problem. I want to control my TiVo in the living room from my bedroom. The bedroom is about 45' away from the living room, and there is a right angle in the hallway connecting the two rooms. The radio signal has to penetrate no less than 3 walls to reach the receiver. I read such glowing reviews of the Powermid, I thought I might as well give it a try. It probably couldn't be any worse than the IR/Radio repeater set I paid about 25% more for at Radio Shack. The Radio Shack unit was horribly unreliable, had to be positioned and repositioned and I would have to hold the remote at a funny angle right in front of the transmitter to get it to work. And then it was intermittent at best. The Powermid works flawlessly. I plugged it in, and it just works. Every click works every time. I have the receiver/IR emitter up high on a shelf, not even directly aimed at the TiVo. The transmitter sits across the bedroom from where I have the remote. I think the Powermid's stellar performance is due in part to the reasonably sized antenna on the receiver unit. No visible antenna on the transmitter unit improves the aesthetics. The power supply is via a standard 110-volt cable, no floor slugs or wall warts, and the cords are plenty long.
