If you have a Motorola cable box with a jack marked "ir remote input" or "external ir input" you can now control it behind closed doors using a very inexpensive cable from irblaster.info.
Here are some boxes this works with:
QIP 7216 (Verizon Fios)
QIP 7100 (Verizon Fios)
DCX3200 (comcast)
DCX3400 (comcast)
This cable does not work with boxes which have ports simply labled as 'ir'. This 'ir' jack is an output only jack and is designed to control an external device such as a vcr via an ir blaster.
IR Distribution kits can still be used to control cable boxes behind closed doors that don't have ir input jacks.
