Overview

Placing this Slingbox between a cable box, DVR or satellite receiver and the network lets you watch and control your home TV from a phone or tablet elsewhere. It connects by component or composite video and Ethernet.

Watching your own channels and recordings away from home is the whole idea. It works with existing pay TV boxes rather than replacing them. SlingPlayer software is a separate purchase, and this is an older version of the box.

Who it's for

Frequent travelers and people with a second home who want their own channels get remote access. Viewers without a set-top box or DVR have nothing to stream.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Streams home TV to mobile devices
  • Controls your DVR remotely
  • Works with cable and satellite boxes
  • Wired Ethernet connection
Cons
  • SlingPlayer software sold separately
  • Older version of the box

Performance notes

Remote picture quality depends on home upload bandwidth and the viewing connection, with efficient compression shrinking the video. Input quality is limited by component or composite cables. Control commands pass to the set-top box so you can change channels.
