All Sky digiboxes come with a second RF output to allow digital satellite programmes - and looped through UHF signals - to be distributed to a
second TV, or to a multi-point distribution system in conjunction with a suitable amplifier. This second RF output is also equipped to accept infra-red
remote control commands sent ‘in reverse’ from the remote viewing location(s). This allows a remote digital satellite viewer the convenience of full
control of the digibox.
The Global tvLINK provides the remote infra-red receiver and coaxial cable coupler necessary to take advantage of this capability within the Sky digibox.
Global tvLINK requires non-isolated outlets and a suitable distribution amplifier.
NB: When using the Global tvLINK with a Sky+ or a Sky HD receiver, you will need to use the relevant remote
control in order to change channels.
This device does not work as a room extender with the Labgear Handylink kit (MRX120). For extra rooms with that kit you need an
MRX110. (For MRX110 see the Labgear Handylink page.)
Please specify whether you require a black tvLINK or silver tvLink to suit your TV screen on the shopping cart order form.
