Keene says its IR Commander Matrix is the most powerful and advanced IR Distribution System it has ever produced.
The product can receive IR commands from multiple external IR receivers or via an IP network and route the signals to one or many IR emitters via its multiple, routed IR outputs. Each IR input can be routed to any combination of IR outputs.
Keene Electronics IR Commander Matrix Local inputs are ‘one way IRDA’ compatible on the IR Commander Matrix meaning the unit will route signals to control all popular set top boxes.
This means, for example, a rack could house three identical Sky receivers, with each one being able to be controlled independently from different rooms, or always from the same remote whichever room it is in. The four IR output channels can drive IR emitter wands or slave IR distribution amplifiers. There are also six local IR input channels, four IR receivers, one onboard IR receiver and one wand input for taking the output directly from another IR distribution system or video sender.
The system is IP addressable and will accept IR over IP inputs from Keene IR Anywhere modules or from PC’s or handheld devices, up to 253 different IP addresses can be catered for. The Internal IR command store can hold up to 128 IR codes in local memory, these can then be triggered by IP command from local network or Internet. Also on-board is a built-in wideband IR receiver, which can be disabled if required.
