can I plug this in to the back of a explorer 4250hdc cable box. it has a IR jack. and how long is the cord

I have mine plugged in to the back of my receiver thus controlling the remote that came with it and I had 1 of the 3-EYE infrared adhered to the front of my receiver. If you want your cable remote to respond you will have to adhere 1 of the 3-EYE to the front of your cable box. It will have to stick right in front of the IR. I think the cable is about 5-6 feet long. By the way, this will not work by itself. It has to be plugged in to a Next Generation Remote Control Extender, if you happen not to have one.

If you have an auxiliary port on your tv, computer screen use that but I suggest a RCA to 2.5 mm jack then you can plug it directly to the back of your tv. Make sure to get least 6ft so you have some slack in the cord to play with.

This should only work with Pyle Monitors. Unless you purchase the twin one which comes with a IR Transmiter 12V then you have to have a higher voltage transformer for AC (Household) an electrician might help you out. The single one only works with Pyle as the IR is built in insdie the monitor, unless pyle sells IR separetely, try their webside www.pyle.com

I use this to control my satalite box, if the cable box uses a ir to remote control it should work if remote control is RF it probable will not work

Haven't used this IR port before but in researching this is called RI port and the equipment you are going to control has to have the same RI port in to control that piece of equipment in the other room. Example had a Onkyo CD player and had RI in you could have CD player come on when you turn on receiver. The RI port is a 1/8" mono plug or also called 3.5 mm mono plug. If your trying to control receiver and equipment from another room you're probably better off installing a IR kit but need a 1/8" wire from room to room and a IR kit I've used the cables to go IR kit works good and only about $40-$45 . Good luck hope this helps.

There is a cord it comes with. It plugs into the back of the unit and is 4 feet long I think.

It should. I use the one that came with the base unit and it works great with my cable box. The led bulb just needs to be placed in front of the IR on the cable box.

I would have to say no. I could not get this product to work correctly from PC to TV on about 25ft of new cat5e.

Yes. Your cable box has the required IR remote sensor and even has USB ports you can use instead of the extender's transformer.

Please note that it does NOT work with any box that has an IR IN. Mainly SA Explorer boxes. We do list compatible and non compatible boxes in the product description section. Check with us before you buy. support@infrared-resources.com

A place called Iguana Works has USB IR Transcievers. Also versions where the emitters can be on an extension cord.

As long as your communication and ir cables are long enough equipment can be placed where ever you want. I installed a whole house cable system with all cable boxes located in the basement. Max distance for remote control to ir receiver works best within 15 to 25 feet in not too bright of a room. Remember external light is the ir enemy good luck

It works great with any remote and reciever that uses infra red. will only work as far as the wire will extend, all my gear (xbox360, Cisco HD box, Yamaha reciever) are in an enclosed cabinet in the next room. works no problem.

Yep sure does. I have the IR blaster plugged into my xbox one and used the double sided tape to stick it to the top of the cable box. Works perfect.

First, it will operate with a cord 35 or longer, in length. Most computer stores sell cable, made to order and attach the connector ends. My unit is over four years old and works great

Yes. I did the same thing. You can purchase a 3.5 mm wall plate, for you repeater, that you can connect to cat5 wiring to carry the signal back to you IR receiver located near your equipment. I control several devices with my set up with a cat5e run that is around 100 feet. No issues.

Depends on whether the IR module is inside the extender, or in the head of the cable (where the ir led is). Even if it is in the head, it still may not work...I don't know. Regardless, it seems to me that it would be inside the extender body, this way, you would only need one module. If this is the case, modifying the cable will do no good.
