Sky remote repeater?

vkid · 2016-05-14 12:42:59

Have one of the newer Sky boxes,with no rf out and now moving it to a cabinet, with closed doors. Is there an IR repeater that can be used to control the Sky box with the doors closed...and could anyone recommend a good one? Thanks

I would think if you connect any sky "magic eye" directly into a sky IO link inside the cabinet, that that would do the trick. Just leave the eye peaking out towards the room.
