Plasma televisions are notorious for emitting tremendous amounts of EMI and RFI emissions from their surface. These emissions involve so many frequencies, at such intense levels, that traditional IR sensors cannot distinguish between the remote control's IR commands and the overwhelming amount of background noise in the room. Audioplex Plasma Proof IR targets can be placed within inches of any plasma display and allow 100% reliable control of your IR system. The micro mount's small size allows it to be flush mounted in a 5/8" hole and hidden out of view.
