That is for IR signals (you would plug an IR (EYE) and place it where your remote would a direct line of sight to operate the receiver --IF your receiver was placed inside a cabinet

Thought so. Just "Eye" with plug at end needed? No other equipment? Does Direct TV installer supply this? I have seen these on internet for just a few dollars. Which would be best way to go? Thank's.

No installer does NOT install that or supply one

I don't remember any DTV Genie receivers or minis with an IR repeater output that is why I ask for the photo.  I do know that old TiVos had them to change the channel on DTV receivers back in the 90's.
