IRCM-VCR, IRCM-DVD, and IRCM-DV+ control modules, for normal operation.
The Extron IR 452 provides infrared remote control of the MLC 52 MediaLink™ Controller when
used with the Extron IRL 20 IR Signal Repeater or IR Link Wall-Mountable IR Signal Repeater.
When combined with the DVCM 50, the IR 452 is able to control basic functions of a VCR and
DVD player.
The Extron IR Link is a single-gang, wall-mountable IR signal repeater that can be used with any
Extron IR compatible product with 38 kHz carrier frequency. It receives signals from an Extron
remote control, such as the IR 402, and passes them to an IR receiving device, such as the
MLC 226 IP MediaLink™ Controller or System 5 IP Switcher. It is available in black, white, and
RAL9010 white. The IR Link ships with one IR Emitter. Mud ring, junction box, and 12 V power
supply are sold separately. A power supply is not needed if used with the compatible MediaLink
Controllers, MediaLink Switchers, or System 5 IP.

Extron MLC PW/RS-232/VC cable assemblie s are u sed to provide RS-23 2 MediaLin k
Switcher control or Mini Power Amp volume control from an MediaLink Controller. Extron
MLC PW/RS-232/VC cable assemblies are ideal for connecting control system components
due to the low capacitance rating of the 22 AWG shielded twisted pair utilized for critical control
communication, and two 18 AWG conductors for sending remote power to an MediaLink™
Controller. MLC PW/RS-232/VC interconnect cables are unterminated and feature two colorcoded 18 AWG, double-shielded conductors, two 22 AWG low capacitance shielded twisted pair
cables, and a drain wire, all enclosed in a single jacket These time-saving and cost-effective
