What is the Global Cache iTach?

Each one of the nine different models in the Global Cache iTach series is a simple device that allows you to connect nearly any infrared (IR), serial (RS232), or contact closure (relay) device to your home network (the Internet). Once your device is connected to the Internet through the iTach, that device becomes "IP-enabled", meaning you can access and control it over the Internet. Each iTach unit supports up to eight simultaneous network connections.

The iTach is perfect for creating an ultra-customized home automation and/or security system. With the Global Cache iTach in your control arsenal, you can add intelligence to just about any electronic device in your home or business.

Choose the Best Connection Type

The Global Cache iTach product line includes a model for each of three types of devices (IR, serial, or contact closure), as well as each type of Internet connection (Wired, WiFi, or Wired PoE).

This IR model is used to connect up to three infrared (IR) devices to your network via Wired PoE (Power over Ethernet, no power adapter needed). Please note, all other models are sold separately. This model must be connected to the network via Ethernet cable. It can be powered either via PoE (cable not included) or with the included power adapter.

Integrate iTach into Your Control System

Global Cache, makers of the iTach, have partnered with almost every software control and home automation company out there. The iTach is widely compatible with 3rd-party systems due to Global Cache's published API, which enables anyone, anywhere to develop a driver that allows a 3rd-party system to control your iTach-connected devices.
