USES of MAG Box IR Blaster
- Allows you hide pretty much any MAG box (with a free USB port) and retain full remote control functionality
ADVANTAGES of MAG Box IR Blaster
- It is easy to set up
- The cable is long, giving you extra flexibility
- Normally operates very well
- Very inexpensive option
- Means you can discretely hide your MAG box in a cabinet or behind a wall mounted TV meaning your whole set up looks a lot neater
- A lot of infra red remote control extenders come with a 3.5mm jack that handles power and signals but these are not universal as the polarity of the 3.5mm jack differs between manufacturers so you can't use them with other brands
- This IR blaster is USB powered, so is pretty much universal
- All you need is a spare USB port on your TV or set top box and you're all set
- it's just a really handy piece of kit to have in many scenarios
DISADVANTAGES of MAG Box IR Blaster
- When the receiver eye is powered, it lights up and some folks can find that annoying
- There is no way around that but we'd suggest placing it as discreetly as possible while still maintaining line of sight
- Only works with infra red remote controls (Pretty much all are these days)
- Will not work with air mouse remotes (Gyroscopic control), these use different frequencies
- Generally you will power it from a free USB port on the MAG box, but can also be powered from a free USB port on your TV
