Re: Anyone using Global Cache GC-100?

I know you can use the output from cgx units with xantech:

Global Cache GC-CGX IR Converter Cable, GC-100 to Xantech
This product connects a GC-100 IR output to a Xantech connecting block IR
input, and is ideal for sending GC-100 IR commands into a Xantech IR
distribution system.

The cable/connector is 1.8m (6feet) long and terminated with a 3.5mm stereo
jack plug. Frequencies from 50KHz to 500KHz are supported. Power is not
required.

Can't see why this would not work with the IR itachs?

seems, as pointed out below, the GC100 only supports a single connection
while the itachs support up to 8 connections. In practice this means only
one remote (iphone/touch or ipad) can control the GC100. May be that's why
the 100 is priced close to the itach while it has more ports.
