Experience seamless, long-range infrared control with the Kramer IR Extender & Repeater. Built around the PT-5T transmitter and PT-5R receiver, this robust two-unit system is designed for sophisticated AV installations where centralized control of multiple devices is essential. By transmitting IR commands over twisted pair cabling, the PT-5T/PT-5R pair lets you manage several devices located far from the source, without sacrificing reliability or performance. Ideal for home theaters, corporate boardrooms, classrooms, and multi-room entertainment setups, this Kramer solution ensures your existing IR remotes can drive a whole rack of gear from a single, convenient location. Control up to five devices with their own remote transmitters and enjoy clean, interference-free IR distribution across your space.

  • Multi-Unit IR Control: Manage up to five devices via dedicated IR transmitters, enabling centralized command from one location.
  • Transmitter and Receiver Pair: PT-5T and PT-5R work together to extend IR signals across rooms, racks, or mezzanines.
  • Long-Range IR over Twisted Pair: Extend IR commands up to 250 meters (820 feet) using standard twisted pair cabling for flexible installations.
  • Local and Remote Control: Supports 2 local devices near the transmitter and 3 remote devices at distant locations, delivering true multi-zone control.
  • Plug-and-Play Integration: Designed to work with your existing IR remotes and equipment with straightforward setup for quick deployment.

Technical Details of Kramer IR Extender & Repeater

  • System composition: IR extender solution built from PT-5T (transmitter) and PT-5R (receiver) components for multi-device control over twisted pair.
  • Control scope: Up to five devices controlled via dedicated IR transmitters, enabling centralized operation from a single location.
  • Distance capability: Up to 250 meters (820 feet) over twisted pair cable, suitable for connecting equipment across rooms or within racks.
  • Device distribution: 2 local devices at the transmitter site and 3 remote devices at distant points within the same system.
  • Cable type: Twisted pair cabling required to realize the extended IR reach and reliable signal pass-through.
  • Power and integration notes: External power supplies are required for operation; standard IR remotes remain functional without modification.

how to install Kramer IR Extender & Repeater

1) Plan the layout: Decide where to place the PT-5T transmitter near your source equipment and where the PT-5R receiver will live closest to the devices you want to control remotely. Ensure the twisted pair cable run between the two units is clear of interference and can span up to 250 meters (820 feet).

2) Connect the IR emitters: Attach the IR emitters (or emitters integrated with your devices) to the IR outputs on the PT-5T so that each local and remote device can receive the IR commands. Ensure each device’s IR receiver is in a location with typical line-of-sight access from the corresponding transmitter channel.

3) Run twisted pair cabling: Install a twisted pair cable between the PT-5T and PT-5R units. Use a quality shielded or unshielded twisted pair suitable for your installation environment, and route the cable away from power lines or sources of EMI to maintain signal integrity. Maintain the maximum recommended distance of up to 250 meters (820 feet) for reliable performance.

4) Connect power supplies: Provide appropriate external power adapters to both the PT-5T and PT-5R units as required by the hardware. Verify power connections are secure and that the units power up without fault indicators before proceeding with testing.

5) Test and verify: Use the existing remote controls to issue commands to all linked devices. Confirm that each local and remote device responds as expected, and that the control signals are fast and accurate across the full range. If any device does not respond, recheck emitter placement, cable integrity, and the remote command compatibility with the target device.

6) Finalize installation: Tidy the cabling and secure both units in their mounted locations. Label each remote device and corresponding transmitter channel for easy future maintenance. If your installation includes multiple rooms, consider adding cable supports or conduit to preserve signal quality and aesthetics.

Tip: For best results, maintain a clear line-of-sight between transmitters and receivers where possible, and avoid placing the IR emitters behind obstructions that could block infrared signals. The Kramer IR Extender & Repeater is designed to work with standard remote controls and popular AV gear, enabling a cleaner, more centralized control experience without compromising performance.

So cutie
Color: Cloud White, Material Type: Paper, PU
This is a bit large for a travel size jewelry box lol I really thought it was going to be a bit smaller than what it was. I can see why some of the ladies in the comments are saying they’re using it as their main jewelry box since they don’t have much jewelry for a standard sized jewelry box. With that being said, it’s cute and CAN be small enough for travel. It fits a lot and I got this one in particular bc I like that it has a bigger lower compartment for larger pieces. It’s a nice quality travel jewelry box. It’ll fit my needs. But if you have a knack for packing small and you value space. I’d say skip on this one or do due diligence to double check the measurements to see if it’s something you’re okay with packing.

Color: Cloud White, Material Type: Paper, PU
I absolutely love this jewelry organizer! The 2-layer design gives it plenty of space without being bulky, making it perfect for travel. I was able to neatly store my earrings, necklaces, rings, and bracelets without anything getting tangled. The interior is soft and protects my jewelry really well, and the compartments are thoughtfully designed to keep everything in place. The compact size fits easily in my suitcase or handbag, which is a huge plus. The cloud white color looks elegant and makes it feel like a great gift option too. Overall, it’s practical, stylish, and very convenient for keeping jewelry organized on the go. Highly
