Cable Matters Infrared Remote Extender Cable - 6ft, IR Repeater Kit Cable, IR Extender, USB Infrared Remote Blaster Cord Up to 15ft Signal Range, NOT Compatible with RF Signals

This just arrived and hooked up easily. My Denon receiver is behind a cabinet door and I often need to change the sound mode (from typical Dolby Surround) for TV sports sound or for Spotify music, which requires using the Denon receiver remote. (I can adjust receiver volume using the TV remote via the CEC / HDMI connection.) Opening the door to change the sound mode is a pain, and is visually undesirable. This gadget works so well, as I can now change the receiver sound mode with the Denon receiver remote. It works 30+ ft. away (may vary for different remotes?) and at a moderate aim angle as well. It took 5 minutes to set up, if that. I do anticipate that I may have to replace the 2-sided tape on the IR receiver and transmitter blobs. I got the "6 ft." model and found that the leads are longer than expected, so it was pretty flexible to connect the USB to a nearby power strip and then mount the IR receiver and transmitter blobs where needed. I just estimated where the Denon receiver IR eye was and mounted the IR transmitter blob inside the door, opposite that area, quite approximately. I'm not sure what the IR transmitter's broadcast angle might be. A blue LED blinks on the IR receiver when activated, so you know you have triggered a change. No instructions are included, other that the diagram you can see on the Amazon site.

Works perfectly! My wife bought a new gorgeous entertainment center but it has no glass doors or any other way to send an IR signal from the remote to the device when the doors are closed. This little product hooks up in seconds and does the trick! I have the receiver portion of this just barely peeking out from the corner of my center channel speaker that sits on top of the entertainment stand. The cord runs down the length of the speaker and behind the stand down into the stand where it points right at my AV receiver and my 4k player. One thing to note: this is not a programmable type device. It picks up ANY IR signal from ANY remote and transmits that signal to the other end. I did not realize this before I purchased this and actually ordered two of them thinking I’d need one for the AV receiver and one for my 4k player as they’re in the same cubby of the entertainment stand but on different shelves. Not so. Once I realized this I positioned the broadcast portion of the device on the inside of the door of the stand so that it can broadcast the remote’s signal to either device, depending on what remote I’m using. Ultimately I returned the unused second device and just kept the one. I sit about 12’ or so from the receiving end of the device and have had no issues whatsoever sending a signal to the device from my couch. Very cool little product that does exactly what you need it yo do. Highly recommended!

It's fast and easy to use, works great.

This worked great. The sound bar was blocking the TV remote sensor, after installing this the remote works great. The only thing I would add is I had to read a review that someone posted that explained to put the sensor next to the TV remote sensor, the rest was easy.

Works perfectly to extend signal from my Universal remote hub to my LG TV. Very happy with my purchase!

Virtually useless to me: 1) Range for me is 7 ft max, less than half of the 15 ft claimed. 2) unit shuts down after about a half hour and has to be unplugged/replugged to start working again.

With new furniture that doesn’t have glass doors, this unit works great for managing the receiver and surround sound system.

While the product worked great, it has a limited range. I could only get 6-8’ (2-3 meters) out, before it wouldn’t pick up the remote signal. Hardly enough for practical use. Was able to plug the USB right into the front of my cable box. Which eliminated the need to plug into a separate power supply.
