1. Introduction
The Infrared 4 by 4 Matrix is designed to control your source devices from beside your display/receiver. Using the original remote, you can control DVD/
Blu Ray players, satellite and set-top-boxes and with a cross matrix design this
device gives anyone the ability to send infrared signals from anywhere, any
place. When used with an HDMI/converter matrix, this brilliant product will
allow you to freely manage your sources and displays. Simply place the IR receiver near the display and put the IR blaster in a position so that all devices
will be able to function properly, even when they are hidden in a cabinet or
placed far away. So if your looking for a way to extend IR control over great
distances, you have but one choice: The Infrared 4 by 4 Matrix
