What is the length of the receiver cable?

The receiver cable length is about 5 feet. You can buy a CAT5 extender setup which allows you to go much further here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016VEFI00/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_GsokEbPHY5B42

Can anyone say with certainty this WILL work with directv dvr and directv genie plus other components? Seems there are several conflicting opinions!

I have this BAFX Repeater, and I also have the DTV HR54-700 satellite box. The repeater does NOT work at ALL with this satellite box. The IR signals come from my Philips Pronto TSU7000 - AND the repeater works FINE with all other connected devices Such as my Sharp Aquos TV, the LED Bias Lighting module on the back of that, a Denon receiver, RCA receiver, and a Philips DVD player The Pronto works intermittently with the satellite box by itself - as long as it is NOT too close to the satellite box As soon as I put the BAFX emitter over the IR receiver window - - IR stops working. I've put up to 6 layers of painters tape over the window - - NOTHING. And Yes - - I have verified (watching with a digital camera: NOT an iPhone) - the emitter sends an IR signal when the BAFX system receives one. - SO - - My thoughts: DTV may be using a different IR light wavelength than what is transmitted by the BAFX. The question of course is - - WHY would DTV do that ?? Answer is ea$y to figure out. It's $o you can't u$e an all-in-one remote - - you have to RENT one of their$

This item can work with my logitech harmony one remote?

Yes. The way this system is designed it will basically pick up any remote using IR technology, which is what the Logitech remote uses. Cheers!

I currently require two remotes to control all my audio/TV equipment. I cannot get them all onto one master remote. Do I need two systems?

No you do not need two systems. This unit simply relays IR signal(s) sent from any remote to your devices hidden away. You stick one of the four IR blasters coming out of the unit on the IR eye of each of your devices and the IR receiver on the edge of your TV. Then you point any remote at TV and press button. The signal will leave your remote to the IR receiver and through the cord the unit. From there the unit will replay the signal to all 4 IR blasters that are placed on the IR eyes of your devices (STB, DVD, AV Receiver, etc...)
