Link several IRtrans by ethernet

Goodmorning,

I have central rack in witch are contained several sources (DVD,SKY etc) I want to control from 3 different rooms.
I want to substitute the RF extender i'm using with Ethernet IR-Trans. I thought I can put an ethernet IRtrans in each room and one in the rack and then (without any external running PC/server) route all the IR commands from the rooms to the rack by means of ethernet. Is this scenario feasible? Witch kind of IR trans should I use?
If it is feasible, how many time it is needed to carry an IRcode from one end to another (latency is high or negligible?)
I have to use just recognized codes or also not standard remote?

Thanks in advance

Luca

Hi,
in general that will be possible using IRTrans Ethernet devices.

You will only need to take care that all devices use the same carrier frequency. Otherwise you will need a different remote control on the receiving side and translate the IR Codes.

The latency is only a few milliseconds.

Please feel free to ask any further questions you might have.
