R-TEC Smart Controls - ARC™ USB Signal Repeater

ARC™ USB Signal Repeaters 

extend the wireless range of the R-TEC Hub 

or Remotes up to 60'. Maximum of 2 repeaters per system or network.

Simply plug into USB Wall Charger for easy install.

In some instances, the remote signal may not reach all motors; simply 
plug in the ARC™ repeater near the suspected out of range motors. If you 
have an instance whereby not all motors are responding or responding 
intermittently, the ARC™ repeater will double the range you currently get.

FEATURES

FACTORS THAT AFFECT YOUR RANGE

Simple Test 

Function

2-Way RF

Communication

• 

Metal is the biggest factor that affects your range; even if there is a metal roof, the remote signal bounces around the house 
and a metal roof absorbs the signal.

• 

Solid Brick walls will heavily affect the range and absorb and reduce the signal.

• 

Wall tiles and glass.

• 

Other metal frames' electrical cables.

• 

Microwave signal; even a residential microwave will shorten the range (while its running).

Easy Installation with 

USB Wall Charger

Extends the Wireless
