IR Repeating System
With the model 3308, you can also control your video devices from any room in the house. Any or all 8 outputs may be connected to model 2100A wall plates. The wall plates interface with a variety of industry standard IR targets. Direct your IR remote control at the IR target and the 2173 IR emitter will repeat the IR signals in the media center.
Model 2132
If the coax panel is not located at the media center, you may add a model 2010 remote power wall plate at the media center and connect the 3308 and 2010 with a single coax cable. The model 2010 will power the 3308, drive the IR emitters and deliver any modulator signals to the 3308. In addition, the 2010 has connectors for 2 IR emitters. (The model 2174 IR expansion panel will expand each of these ports to drive up to 4 IR emitters.)

Normally, the IR emitters are also connected to Model 2100A wall plates. But, if the coax panel is located in the media center, you may choose to connect the emitters to a model 2184 IR breakout panel. Both examples are shown below. The model 2184 plugs directly into the 3308, replacing the power adaptor cable. The 2184 can drive up to 4 IR emitters.
