ATEN 2XRT-0003G-1 IR Extension Cable Full Range
Overview
The ATEN 2XRT-0003G-1 is a full-range IR extension cable designed to relay infrared remote control signals from a receiver to a target device when direct line-of-sight between the remote and the controlled equipment is not possible — a common constraint in rack-mounted AV systems, closed AV cabinets, and multi-room control deployments. Rather than repositioning equipment or compromising cabinet design, the 2XRT-0003G-1 routes the IR signal via cable to an emitter placed directly at the device's IR sensor window, preserving clean rack layouts and reliable control.
Compatibility
The 2XRT-0003G-1 is designed for use within the ATEN AV and KVM accessory ecosystem, pairing with ATEN IR extender and control systems that accept a full-range IR extension cable input. Verify the IR connector type and pin configuration against your specific ATEN control unit before ordering — ATEN produces multiple IR cable variants, and connector compatibility is not universal across all models in the line.
Installation Notes
Position the IR emitter end directly against or within a few millimeters of the target device's IR sensor window for reliable signal pickup. Avoid routing the cable alongside high-current power cables, which can introduce interference. The cable is intended for fixed indoor installation; do not use in outdoor or high-humidity environments unless the host system is rated for such conditions. Confirm cable reach is sufficient for your rack depth and routing path before installation — extensions or cable management may be needed in deep rack configurations.
