External IR Emitters

Postby philwhite » Thu 16. Oct 2008, 05:25

Hello all - I am looking to purchase a USB unit with a bus module. The bus module will go into another room and control two devices about 30' apart. If I use an external emitter for one or both devices, will cable length (up to 30') be a problem? If so, what about placing the unit in the middle and running two 15' cables for the emitters?

Thanks in advance

Hi Phil,
in general the cable for the IR Transmitters should not be longer than 5m (15 feet).
