IR SYSTEMS
For basic IR repeating systems, this 1-input
by 2-output Passive IR Connection Block
provides a quick and easy means for
connecting an ELAN IR Sensor and two IR
Emitters. Current-sharing resistors at each
emitter jack allow any combination of
single- or dual-emitters to be used. The
STATUS input jack allows you to monitor
the ON/OFF condition of systems
components (PWR2 Power Supply
required for status feedback).
IRD2 PASSIVE IR CONNECTION BLOCK
IRD4 AMPLIFIED IR DISTRIBUTION BLOCK
For use with the IRD4, this simple-to-use
emitter expansion block allows you to
expand the number of IR output ports in
any system. Connecting the IRD10 to the
high output emitter port of an IRD4
Amplified IR Distribution Block allows you
to add up to ten additional IR emitters
per IRD10 to the system for source
control. The IR high-output loop port of
the IRD10 allows you to add up to four
additional IRD10s for a total of 50
emitters. The IRD10 even comes with a
1-foot interconnect cable for quick and
easy connection.

Supply, depending on scope of system
Full-color retail box
IR DISTRIBUTION
Sensors “receive” IR data. Emitters “transmit” IR data. So how does one get this data from point A to point
B? Quite easily, actually. In addition to offering a complete line of multi-room controllers that route IR to
and from any room in the house, ELAN offers a comprehensive line of stand-alone IR Distribution Hubs that
accommodate anything from basic IR repeater systems to multi-zone distribution scenarios.
The ELAN IRD4 is the heart of any
stand-alone IR distribution system.
This amplified IR distribution block can
connect quad-plug or bare-lead ELAN IR
Sensors in one or more rooms and output
their signals to up to four IR emitters.
The IRD4’s robust, wide-bandwidth
amplifier incorporates reverse voltage
protection so that it has the ability to
drive both miniature- and high-output
emitters simultaneously. And the IRD4
is expandable! Up to ten IRD4s can be
linked together to create a distributed IR
system that encompasses every room in
the house.
Note: only 3.5 mm quad “mini” plugs can be
connected to the 3.5 mm IR Sensor input jack
of the IRD2. If the IRD2 is to be connected to
the IR output of any other ELAN product,
use only the 3.5 mm quad-to-mono
interconnect cable included with the IRD2.
