Exclusive First Look at New IR over TCP/IP Units

Here's a first look at some pretty special pre-release sample units of
the
"IR Anywhere" system from Keene Electronics. The new system
allows you to
send Infra Red remote control signals across your network cabling, but
unlike other systems that simply use the CAT as a medium to send the
electrical signals, IR Anywhere actually converts the infra red into packet
data for transmission across your LAN via TCP/IP. The signals are received
at the module with the IP address they were sent to where they are de-coded
and output back as IR
Interestingly Keene tell us they will be releasing information on the code
format they use, allowing anyone to interface to the units to send IR over
TCP/IP. The system is still in Beta and there's no word on pricing or
release date just yet but look out for more information in our review of IR
Anywhere soon...
