Complete Fluence Dimming & FLEX Cable Guide w/Diagrams – M12 Connector
This cable is NOT compatible with the M16 dimming port found on older Gen 2 fixtures (see Connector Legend below). This cable uses an M12 (metal screw-on) connector; if your power supply uses an M16 (plastic push-lock) then you will need to use an M16 FLEX cable or an M12 to M16 adapter. This cable cannot be used with Gen 1 fixtures (SPYDRx, SPYDRx PLUS, RAZR or RAY).
One T-Connector is required for every light in a series. Use a 5′ cable if fixtures are mounted less than 5′ apart, or a 10′ cable for greater spacing. Use a 20′ 4-output cable to connect 4 fixtures in a series that will be mounted less than 5′ apart (more affordable than purchasing (4) individual 5′ cables).
Compatible with any Gen 2 or later Fluence fixture that has an M12 dimming port, such as:
- SPYDR FANG
- SPYDR 2x (newer model only)
- SPYDR 2p (newer model only)
- SPYDR 2i (newer model only)
- SPYDR 2h
- VYPR 3x
- VYPR 3p
- RAZRm
