Default Pace Sky+ Remote - IR or IrDa?

I'm thinking of purchasing an audio/video sender (running a cable would be
very difficult) to transmit my from my Pace Sky+ box in the lounge up to my
bedroom.

The sender has an 'IR extension function' so that I can use a Sky+ remote
control in the bedroom to control the Sky+ box in the lounge. However the
Sender only works with Infra-red (IR) not IrDa signals.

My question is - does my Pace Sky+ and its remote control communicate via IR
or IrDa?

thanks - Steve B.

Dunno, but my Sky+ video sender works well and I can change the channel from
the bedroom using a standard Sky+ remote I bought off Ebay.

AFAIK it's IR; IrDa is for cable boxes.
