Hardware for new Optik google

[Ss_blake]

Does anyone know exactly what hardware is used for the new Google/Android based Telus TV boxes ? Is there an equivalent that usa providers are using (the old box used to be an Arris model) ?

First question was already asked and answered. Info on Telus.com.

For the second question, you'll need to ask Google or check the various American TV service providers' websites. I doubt any are using the exact same new set top box.

Thanks. Hard to find specs on Technicolor Jade. Will it allow legacy control via an IR remote ?

This may still be needed in residences that have central AV media racks with distributed audio/video and control systems ex Crestron.

Yes, it does have IR support. That's how the remote controls it before it's paired over bluetooth.
