Features

• Connect your A/V Equipment over a network

  The Global Caché GC-100-18R Ethernet To Infrared and Serial Network Adapter connects infrared, Sony Control-S, RS232 serial, sensors, and relay contact closures to a network  for monitoring and control of A/V and other equipment over a network and the Internet.

• Control more electronic Devices

  The Global Caché GC-100-18R Ethernet To Infrared Serial and Relay Network Adapter has 2 serial ports, 3 relay connections, and 6 independent outputs/sensor inputs which means you can control various electronic devices at one time. 

• Saves you Time and Money

  The Global Caché GC-100-18R Ethernet To Infrared and Serial Network Adapter provides lets you use one device rather than several from different vendors helping you save time and money to connect your A/V equipment to the network. 

• Offers an Open Network-Based System

  This adapter supports TCP, DHCP, and HTTP protocols which means that you can configure and manage sensor devices from a single server without operator intervention. 

• Integrates Seamlessly

  The Global Caché GC-100-18R Ethernet To Infrared and Serial Network Adapter conforms with all types of smart controls and monitoring environments and can easily be integrated in to a home automation system or controlled by PC or iPhone/iPod/iPad control applications.

• Remote Control

  You can remotely control all your AV equipment with various software including HC-Skipper, iRidium, Melloware and MobiLinc Remote.

• One Power Supply 

  Only one power supply required for each enclosure means less expense, clutter, and improves reliability.

NOTE: This is the same configuration as GC-100-18 with rack mount kit installed
