From an interview posed in the emulator-forum awhile back:

The problem here is that there are no standards. Even on a single platform,
there are no IR standards. For instance, how does one send and receive IR
data on a Windows box? I don't know. AFAICT, each 3rd party IR pod comes
with a different driver.
A 3rd party developer has been hacking on a version of Poser that communicates
between two instances via a sockets connection. He's indicated some success
with it, but I haven't seen the result yet.

That is not to say it can't be done, but there is no specific
emulation layer to handle tx/rx of OBEX on POSE that I've seen. Where did you
see Keith mention this was possible?

It seems to describe the situation you are asking for.
Hope that helps.
