Extending Irout over distance

I have a remote control unit (RevEd product) which works well with a Picaxe board with Irin. However I am trying to see what I would need to extend this over many feet, ie what would I need to bridge the gap using cable. Would I need to make another receiver (to accept output from my RevEd remote) connected to a long cable with another Picaxe board to generate Irout into my final board or is there a better way?

You should be able to move your IRIN sensor from the main board further from it using cable.
