What this cable does in your runThe RP-LBI65-LC-12IN-DIM is a
12-inch linking cable built for the LBI 65 linear LED bar system. Instead of butting fixtures directly end to end, you plug this jumper between two bars and gain a foot of freedom. That single foot is often the difference between a clean, straight row of light and a compromised layout, because it lets you step around structural steel, hangers, pipes and sprinkler heads while keeping every bar on the same circuit and the same control line. Because it is a factory-made cable with matched connectors, there is no field splicing, no wire nuts and no guesswork about polarity — you connect, you hear it seat, you move to the next bar.
Dimming and controlThe DIM suffix in the part number identifies this as the
dimming linking cable version, carrying the control conductors along with power so the connected bars respond together. Read the manufacturer's note carefully when you plan a large installation: linking does not include 0-10V linked control, and how your dimming behaves down the run will depend on the controlling device you specify. Likewise, using linking cables will lower the connectable quantity of bars in a single run compared to a straight end-to-end assembly, so count your jumpers before you commit to a run length.
Technical specificationsPart number: RP-LBI65-LC-12IN-DIM
Brand: LIGHT EFFICIENT DESIGN
Type: Linking cable, dimming (DIM)
Length: 12 in
Family lengths available: 6IN, 12IN, 24IN, 48IN (up to 48")
System: LBI 65 linear LED bars
Linking quantity (2FT and 3FT bars): 40 bars at 120V, 208V, 240V and 277V
Linking quantity (4FT bars): 33 bars at 120V, 40 bars at 208V, 240V and 277V
Linking note: based on using the LBI 65 conduit adapter, connected end to end; with incoming power cables on 120VAC the linking number is reduced to 24 pcs
Accessories it lives withThink of this jumper as one piece of a small kit of
LBI 65 cables and connectors. Power enters the run through the
RP-LBI65-IP-3FT incoming power cable wire whip, or through the incoming power conduit adapter RP-LBI65-IPC-12NPT-3FT when the feed has to be hardwired into a fixture or junction box with conduit. Where bars sit tight together, the
CCT in-line seamless connector keeps the line unbroken, while the
non-dimming seamless connector covers non-dimming and non-CCT control applications. For suspended rows, the
stainless steel waterproof aircraft suspension cable hangs the bars at the height you want. Need a bigger gap between fixtures? Step up to the
48 inch linking cable.
Applications and documentationThis
LED jumper cable earns its keep in Canadian industrial and commercial projects: a warehouse aisle where racking uprights dictate fixture spacing, a service garage with overhead doors and tracks in the way, an underground parking level full of ducts, a grow room where bars sit above equipment, or a retrofit where the existing strip fixtures never lined up with the new layout. Buy a mix of lengths — 6IN, 12IN, 24IN and 48IN — and an installer can adapt on the spot instead of re-drilling hangers.
