Where to use
• PC to LSS Ethernet
• LSS Ethernet to LSS Distributor
• LSS Distributor to LSS Distributor
• sometimes possible also for LSS Distributor to LED strip
• LSS Distributor to LED strip
• LED strip to LED strip
Don't use for signal distance longer than 5m!
Only for use in non-heavy EMI interfered environment.
• LSS Distributor to LED strip
• LED strip to LED strip
Use for longer distance approx. up to 15m.
Where to use
110V - 230V power distribution/power supplies
Where to use
5V distribution for short strips (max 5m) for short distance
from PS* (max 2m), also good to trace parallel with strip to
decrease losses in strip when strip is longer (3m+)
5V distribution for strips (max 10m) for short distance from PS
(max 2.5m), also good to trace parallel with strip to decrease
losses in strip when strip is longer (5m+)
5V distribution for strips (max 15m) for short
distance from PS (max 3m)
5V distribution for strips (max 40m) for short
distance from PS (max 4m)
5V distribution for strips (max 60m) for longer
distance from PS
