iluminar dim cable for iL5, iL8, iL12 LEDs in Tight Rack Runs
The iluminar dim cable spans 0.5 m / ~1.6 ft between IL Series fixtures. It carries the 1-10V dim signal across iL5, iL8, and iL12 LEDs. Each IL fixture has two RJ14 dim ports. A single cord plugs into one upstream port and one downstream. This is the shortest factory length in the IL Series dim cable family. It targets tight fixture-to-fixture spacing on multi-tier racks and close-pitch flower rooms. The 0.5 m run lines up with adjacent fixtures essentially touching at the ends. The cable carries the dim signal only, not the AC line. Input power still routes through the dedicated AC daisy chain cord.
RJ14 dim jumper for iL5, iL8, iL12 Across Multi-Tier Vertical Racks
Growers typically place this cable on multi-tier vertical racks where the next fixture sits one tier below. The 0.5 m length keeps the wiring loom tight and avoids excess slack near the canopy. RJ14 is the same modular jack used across most horticultural 0-10V drivers. Spare-cord sourcing stays simple. Mix lengths in the same chain freely. Both lengths carry the same dim signal. Plug it in at any port. Both dim ports on the IL fixture are electrically identical.
Key Features
- 1-10V Analog Dim Signal: Carries the dim line between IL Series fixtures with no AC load.
- RJ14 Modular Connector: Same jack used across most 0-10V horticultural drivers, easy to source spares.
- 0.5 m / 1.6 ft Length: Shortest factory length, sized for multi-tier racks and tight fixture pitch.
- iL5 iL8 iL12 Compatibility: Direct-fit dim jumper for iluminar iL5, iL8, and iL12 LED grow lights.
- Two Ports per Fixture: Pass-through chaining requires no splitter or terminator block.
