Global Caché GC-IRL Recognized as Product of the Year
IR Learner Selected as Favorite High-Impact Product of the Year For IP-Enabling by CE Pro Readers

Jacksonville, OR - December 13, 2004 - Global Caché, the leader in IP-enabling products for homes and businesses, announced today that its GC-IRL IR Learner has been chosen as the most important product of the year in the IP Enabler category by CE Pro Magazine and their readers. The prestigious award is given to products that have been sold, installed, and tested in the field, and have proved to be of high value to the thousands of CE Pro readers polled.

Julie Jacobson, Editor at Large of CE Pro Magazine, writes, “The most inexpensive item among this year's CE Pro High Impact Products, the GC-IRL pays for itself in one or two uses. The $100 IR Learner from Global Caché plugs into a PC's serial port and captures IR codes for easy importation into a database or home-control program. Simply point an IR remote at the tiny device and shoot. The learned code is displayed, converted into other formats, and automatically copied into the Windows clipboard for easy pasting into other programs.”

Jacobson continues, “It's no surprise that Global Caché would deliver this little gem. The young company has built several critical products that bridge the digital/analog gap. In particular, the GC-100 adapters connect virtually any type of legacy device—via IR, relay, or serial connections—to an IP-enabled network.”

“All of us here at Global Caché are honored with the recognition of our hard work, innovation, and dedication to delivering high quality products that help dealers and installers do their jobs faster, easier, and more profitably,” said Walt Keller, Global Caché CEO. “It’s especially gratifying that the recognition comes from CE Pro and their readership of dealers and installers.”
