The Russound IRE-1 is a single-head infrared emitter, the final link in an IR repeater system. It carries the commands collected by a remote IR receiver to one piece of AV equipment, such as a cable box, disc player or streamer, that sits out of sight in a cabinet or rack. The small emitter head attaches over the component's IR window with an adhesive pad and is low enough to go unnoticed. An IR blocking cover is supplied to keep direct remote signals or room light from reaching the sensor and causing double commands. The head transmits from both its front and back, so it can also be stuck to the inside of a cabinet to flood several devices when that suits the install. The 10-foot cable ends in a colour-coded 3.5 mm plug that drops into an emitter jack on a Russound CB-140 connecting block, or the IR emitter outputs on Russound multiroom controllers such as the MCA-66 and MCA-88. Colour coding helps installers keep connections straight and saves time on site.
