Repeater / Booster for PentaFOB® and PentaCODE® Remotes

The PCTR433 is a repeater for 433MHz remotes. It can extend the operating range of “PentaFOB® and “PentaCODE® remotes by receiving their transmissions and re-transmitting them with higher power. This feature is particularly useful for environments where standard remote signal range may be insufficient due to obstacles, long distances, or other interference. The range of these remotes can be significantly extended to up to 500 meters, providing greater flexibility and convenience in controlling gates, garage doors, or other systems remotely.

The Pentarepeater can be used with encrypted code or with dip switch codes. Whether your system relies on the traditional dip switch method or a more secure encrypted code, the repeater effectively amplifies the signal, ensuring reliable performance across greater distances.

The PCTR433 offers flexible power options. You can power it using a standard micro USB connection, similar to those for charging phones or digital cameras, adding convenience and reducing the need for specialized power supplies. Alternatively, you can power it with an external AC/DC supply.

Multiple repeaters can be used in series allowing you to further amplify the signal across expansive areas. This makes the PCTR433 an ideal solution for large properties or commercial settings where extended remote control range is essential. In summary, the Pentarepeater enhances the functionality of “PentaFOB® and “PentaCODE® remotes by significantly increasing their range, offering flexible power options, and ensuring compatibility with various coding systems.
