I bought this product because I did not have the Kinect and I still wanted to watch television through my Xbox one. It works great. I can control my tv and cable box all through one remote. The only things I am missing are the camera and voice control which I don't care for anyway.

I have no Kinect and the IR cable was a cheaper option. Remote works good and I am now able to control my Xbox and tv with the Xbox remote. Had a lot of trouble setting it up but oce I figured out how IR works I had no issues working with the cable.

Easy to setup. Plugs in the back and you place it in the proper respective locations using the provided adhesive. However randomly stopped working. Will be replacing it and see how the second ones lifespan is.

This ir extender for the Xbox One was a great addition to my system. I also got a wider range while using my Xbox one media remote as well. I'm also get a better range while using my kinnect.

I purchased this to have my Xbox One control both my Onkyo AV Receiver and LG TV. Unfortunately, I could never get my receiver to work using this cable and the Xbox settings. The TV works fine though!

These IR extenders now allow me to control all of devices, most of which are hidden within cabinets. Easy setup & multiple IR blasters now allow my XB1 to control everything.

Lets you change your TV's volume with Xbox Remote

For some strange reason, a lot of Xbox Media remotes (including the official one at the time I bought this) don't have a built in programmable IR repeater, so you need to get a separate cable like this to change the volume on your TV and turn it on and off.
This cable only allows you to control your TV with your Xbox One, but it does this well. I've been using this for a few years now and it still works great, and I have no complaints.

Does everything as advertised. For those who don't use a kinect, this is the perfect alternative.
