FULL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Watch and control Sky from extra rooms

Remote control a Sky, Sky+ or Sky HD receiver from additional rooms in the house with the tvLINK Magic Eye remote control sender. The Global tvLINK system provides an easy way to watch and control Sky from another room in the house, e.g. the bedroom or kitchen, and send remote control signals back to the Sky receiver. This Magic Eye is suppplied complete with a fitted flylead that provides a flexible and stable connection with F connection to coax cable.

  • Sky Approved (compatible with Sky, Sky+ and Sky HD)
  • Inexpensive - much cheaper than Sky's MultiRoom
  • Discreet, modern design
  • Expandable - control additional equipment with a tvLINK Plus
  • Simple to use and setup

The clever gadget can be the basis of a DIY Sky multiroom system – without the cost of multiroom subscription. This solution can work out much cheaper than Sky MultiRoom , which currently costs £120 per year.

How it works

The tvLINK Magic Eye works by sending the remote control signal from the second room along coax cable back to the Sky receiver in the main room, letting you change channels, access the TV Guide, etc. You simply need to run a coax cable from the main Sky receiver's RF output (normally labeled RF-OUT-2) to the tvLINK in the second room, which is in turn connected to the second TV.

Not satisfied with just one extra room?

This smart little unit simply doesn't just let you remote control a Sky, Sky+ or Sky HD digibox from a second room - you can keep adding tvLINK Magic Eyes to provide control from a third, fourth or even more rooms, if required. This Magic Eye is suppplied complete with a fitted flylead that provides a flexible and stable connection with F connection to coax cable.

If you want your Sky TV distributed to multiple rooms you will need connect the RF output from the Sky receiver to the input of a TV signal distribution amp, with the output of the amp routed via coax cable to a tvLINK Remote Control Extender in each room. This can end up not only being cheaper than Sky Multiroom, but also more flexible.

On a typical installation the Sky digibox is located in the living room with a second TV set being situated in the kitchen or a bedroom. This means it is possible for the main location to be watching one of the terrestrial channels, i.e. from the Freeview receiver or directly on TV, whilst the second location watches the Sky channels, i.e Sky Sports.

See the diagram below for an example configuration.
