How long are the cables?
The cable length for the eco+ and PRO² LED bars is 150cm. In order to extend the cables of the LED bars (150cm), which may be too short (to the installation site of the control unit), I recommend the extension cable by the metre with the solder connectors.
For the aquaLUMix, powerBEAM and multiBEAM products, the cable length is 250cm and should not be extended.
A maximum cable length should always be kept as short as possible. There is a purely physical reason for this: the longer the cable, the higher the voltage drop, the less efficient the lighting. In addition, long cables behave like an antenna; the susceptibility to interference increases massively with the length of the cables. More than 3 m should therefore be avoided if possible.
The cable length of the power supply units is approx. 50cm on the input and output side.
