Global Caché Begins Shipping Infrared Receivers
Small Form Factor, Plasma Friendly, New Global Caché GC-RG1 Works With Other Vendors Products and Allows Signals to be Received and Sent Over a Network
Denver, CO USA - September 14, 2006 - (CEDIA Expo Booth #641) Global Caché, the award winning provider of IP-enabling products for homes and businesses, announced today they will begin shipment of the GC-RG1 IR Receiver immediately. The GC-RG1 is a small infrared (IR) receiver engineered to work in a multitude of environments and is compatible with other manufacturers systems. Designed to resist interference from sunlight, florescent lights, and plasma displays, the GC-RG1 provides plug-and-play integration into multi-room IR systems, employing conventional wiring or a network.
Global Caché’s products include the GC-100 Network Adapter, a flexible and easy to use hardware device connecting infrared (IR), serial (RS232), relay (contact closure) devices, and sensor input to a network. The GC-100 enables the use of network-based software to control and automate diverse devices throughout a home and business. In addition, Global Caché provides IR learners, sensors, and other IP-enabling products to connect previously unconnected systems to a network. Global Caché products are based upon open systems and accepted industry standards.
“We have been looking forward to the release of the GC-RG1,” said Ted Singh, Embedded Automation Business Development Manager, creators of mControl automation software. “With this product our software is able to recognize incoming IR commands and automatically launch mControl macros, allowing us to accomplish a multitude of functions, such as controlling Z-Wave and INSTEON devices, sending email, sending IR commands, or launching other programs. Previously, to initiate any type of sophisticated automation via IR control, an expensive touchscreen and custom software were required. Used together, Global Caché and mControl are a complete system. This solution requires no custom software, making it cost-effective and easy to use. In our opinion, it can become the de facto solution for the home theater.”
Walt Keller, Global Caché President said, “We’re excited to begin shipping the much anticipated GC-RG1. This product, with its incredibly small form factor and flexible application in all types of environments, is a direct result of listening to our customers and partners. The product is so tiny and versatile it can be used in any environment to receive IR signals, such as legacy Xantech environments, and over a network when used with our GC-100 Network Adapter. The response from our partners and dealers and installers has been overwhelming positive.”
