Built for the LBI linking systemThe 48-inch non-dimmable linking cable belongs to the Light Efficient Design
LBI accessories line — the family of linking cables, connectors, clips and power feeds designed around LBI light bars. Instead of hardwiring between fixtures, you plug one end into the output connector of a bar and the other into the input of the next one. The result is a repeatable, factory-made connection every time, which is exactly what you want when a job has dozens of joints and an inspection at the end. Because it is a
non-dimmable linking cable, it is intended for fixed-output LBI installations; the matching dimming version of the accessory family exists separately, so keep dimmed runs and non-dimmed runs on their own cable type.

Installation and layoutPlan your spacing before you climb the ladder. The 48-inch length is the one to pick when bars are separated by a structural element or when the reflected-light layout calls for gaps between illuminated sections. Leave
2.25" of working room at the connector so the cable can be unplugged from the bar later for service, and allow
1.6" where the connector meets a wall or mounting surface. The slim
0.28 INCH cable follows a T-bar grid, a shelf upright or a cabinet toe-kick easily and can be dressed with clips so nothing sags into view. Connections are quick, tool-free and repeatable, which is why contractors keep a
10-pack of linking cables in the van rather than cutting and splicing on site.
Works with the rest of the LBI accessory familyThe documentation lists the full ecosystem this cable belongs to. Power comes in through the
3 ft incoming power kit with its service disconnect and abrasion protection grommet, through the
2 ft incoming power cord with 120V plug and switch for a direct receptacle connection, or through the
12 ft 90-degree incoming power cable for suspended runs. Branch-circuit connections are made at the
LBI junction box, which connects to the light bar using a seamless connector and a linking cable. Mounting hardware in the same family includes the
blade clip with its rotating mounting blade and the
45° bracket for cove lighting or displays. The last connector in the chain is terminated with the
output cap.
Applications and documentationThink long retail gondola runs where each bay needs its own bar, warehouse racking aisles, garage and workshop benches, commercial kitchens, display cases, cove and valance details in offices, and residential cabinetry where a 48-inch jump clears a range hood or a window. Buying ten identical
LED linking cables at once keeps every connection in the system the same and avoids stopping a crew mid-install to chase one more jumper.
