Features & Specifications

This is a 9-ft IR Receiver Extender Cable designed specifically for HD DVR Set top Boxes. This handy cable allows you to place your Set Top box behind cabinet doors or locations up to 9 feet away and still operate the STB with your remote control. Simply plug the 3.5mm plug into the IR port on the back of the box and place the receiver on or near your flat screen television. The 9-ft lead is 30AWG and includes a 3.5mm stereo plug. The dark color leans makes this unit plasma proof and has a 35-40 range from the reomote control to the IR receiver. Extend the length even more with our 25-ft IR receiver extension cable.

Hi George: The IR0104 is a simple IR Reciever that needs to connect to a component like a Set-top box that is programmed to accept commands from an IR Remote Control. TL/5471

Will the 3.5mm fit into my Xfinity box? Why do I see some cables being offered with 1.8mm jacks? If I use a 25ft extension cord, will I need additional power than that from the cable box?
1 Answer
Hi Bruce: If the IR104 works with your Xfinity box (we know it works with Comcast, I asked you to check with the manufacturer Infrared Resources-https://www.amazon.com/Infrared-Resources-External-Universal-Receiver/dp/B0107LT77S). I believe you can extend the system over 100 feet (4 x 25 foot). Make sure the 25-foot extender cable is a 3.5mm stereo connection. Note: they have a new design available. Good luck TL/5427

Will this work on an Xfinity cable box? The box does have an IR input.
1 Answer
Hi Bruce: I would check with the actual manufacturer; Infrared Resources listed on AMAZON. This IR Receiver was one of their first products which sold very well. I can not guarantee these will work with the latest Xfinity box although Comcast was one of the Manufacturers listed on the positive side. TL/5426

Conni
from Nevada asked:
May 9, 2018
What should I use for a Cisco Explorer 9865HDC? Thank you.
1 Answer
HI Conni: I can not find what Frequency the CISCO box operates under. Either 38kHz or 56 kHz. The IR104 we stock is rated at 38 kHz. In the specifications on our site it list a couple of CISCO boxes this will work with. But the list is outdated so your box may work. You might want to get in touch with the company who provides the box to you (the cable or satellite provider) and ask them whether the frequency is 38 kHz or 56 kHz. And ask them if the IR input on the back is active and will accept an IR Receiver. If they say yes and confirm the frequency is at 38 kHz then this is your item. We do have a 30 performance guarantee as well. We are located in Southern California a day away from you. TL/4669

1 Answer
Hi Brenda: This IR Receiver works with boxes with a frequency of 38Hz. I could not find anywhere on line (including spec sheet or owner's manual) where the CISCO Spectrum boxes listed the frequencies at 38Hz or even 56Hz where it definitely would not work. TL/4643

I have a Arris cable box will the ir0104 work with this
1 Answer
Hi Guy: The IR 104 works on 38 kHz frequency only. If your box is 38 kHz it should work. IR Resources has a new dual frequency Receiver 38 kHz and 56 kHz. You can find it on Amazon. TL/4543

Does this work for the Cisco Digital Transport Adapter 170HD? Cisco spec's an "IR-57" extender cable that operates at 57 Khz.
1 Answer
Hi Steve: This IR is an older version that will only do 38KHz. Infrared Resources the manufacturer has a newer version that will do 30 to 60KHz. You will find it on AMAZON; https://www.amazon.com/External-38-56kHz-Receiver-Extender-EXPLORER/dp/B0107LT77S/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1485562786&sr=8-4&keywords=ir+receivers. Good Luck TL/4195

Carlos
from San Diego ca asked:
March 8, 2016
My JVC LED TV IR sensor, is not working. Can I connect this IR receiver to my TV, so I can control volume and turning on and off my TV?...If not, do you sell something that will work?
1 Answer
Hi Carlos: First you need to determine a few things... The IR Sensor is not working on your TV, I am assuming with the JVC Remote control or your Time Warner or Direct TV universal Remote? Did you change the batteries on the remote that would not work? Have you gone into settings on the TV to see if you can turn the IR Sensor on/off? Does your TV have a input on the back for an IR Receiver like the IR0104; Does your owners manual have anything about adding an external Remote sensor? If you do not have your owners Manual you can find it on-line. I checked a couple of JVC televisions but did not see any with IR input usually a 3.5mm RCA connection (like a headphone jack on your smartphone). You might want to contact JVC customer support as well to discuss IR. I hope that helps TL/3743

Will this work with a DirecTV H25-100 HD box? The box does have an input for an "external remote".
1 Answer
Hi Dan, The IR0104 is compatible with many different models of DVR boxes that are found on the website. Your DirecTV box is not listed on either the compatible or non-compatible lists. It seems possible that you would be able to use the IR0104 with an "external remote" input but that is something you would have to check with DirecTV directly. CS 2425

I have a Samsung box model SMT C5320 HD and I need to know if the IR0104 IR receiver ext cable can be used for my model.
1 Answer
Hi Graziella, The Samsung set top box does not have a direct IR hard wire input. The IRP-2 or IRP-3 would be your best choice for your application depending on how many other components you might want to control along with your set-top box. Maybe a Blu-Ray player or a game unit. The kit works with almost every component that features an IR sensor. The emitters from the kit cover the sensor so the signal is transmitted directly to the sensor of the desired component. If you Let us know what actual components you have in your system, we can assist you further. TL/MA - 1556
