Parts Express has all of the equipment with pictures.

The IR target sits at the TV. It's about 3/4" tall and 3" wide. I have one on top of my TV and it isn't noticable. I've had a lot of people ask how I control my equipment in another room so I point to the target. No one noticed it before I pointed it out. The IR signal is carried over the coax back to the modulator where it is sent out the IR ports to IR emitters which are placed in front of the equipment to be controlled. Compared to wireless IR extenders, these things work 99.9% of the time where wireless is about 70%. Nothing worse than having to press the channel up button a dozen times to change it once.
