Loox5 Light extension wires and terminal block extenders
The Loox5 extension wires are used when lights need to be distanced farther away from the LED power driver, generally for larger applications or kitchens. Many of the Loox and Loox5 LED lights come with a 78-3/4" attached lead wire. The extension cables will give you a lot more reach.
The terminal block extenders, either the 6-port with a pigtail, or the 4-port with built in extension wires, give you the capability to add more lights onto the higher capacity LED power drivers.
Loox5 extension cables will have yellow ends for 12v, and dark green ends for 24v.
When the 79" pre-attached light lead doesn't reach, add a 20", 39" or 79" extension. All are available in the 12v and 24v systems. The shorter 7-7/8" extension we show for its uses between the LED power driver and distributor combination, if choosing to do so. Distributors can connect directly to the driver. But if you have a tight space or need to round a corner, the same extension leads for the lights can be used to space a distributor a little farther away from the driver.
We have also listened to stories about how halogen light systems have had their transformers mounted in the basement or attic. Those definitely required extension wires to reach lights positioned farther in a downline in your kitchen. LED light systems are set up similar to low voltage halogen. Your LED power driver feeds individual lights attached to it that spoke out in one direction or several directions.
Two types of terminal block extenders turn one port on the Loox5 distributors into 4 or 6 ports. It is the way to expand the number of connected lights to a driver WITHOUT exceeding the maximum wattage of a driver. For example, if you would like to use 10 of the 2.5-watt LED lights, that is 25 watts. You CANNOT use only one 20 watt driver, that exceeds its capacity. You could use two of the 20 watt drivers and split your lights and still control them together by plugging the drivers into the same outlet. Or you could use one 40 watt driver with a distributor, and then a 6-port terminal block extender. This will create 11 usable ports, plenty for your 10 lights. If you wanted to use two of the 6-port terminal block extenders on the 40 watt driver/distributor, you would create 16 usable ports. Each extender uses one port, so on the 6-port, you have a net gain of 5 ports. On the 4-port, you have a net gain of 3 ports overall.
The 4-port daisy extender is like a combination extra extension wires and a 4-port splitter. Ideal for long island cabinets where you need to reach way down away from the position of the LED driver. It gives you a long extension first, then allows you to space out four lights in the down line. Convenient for larger size areas. Even for built in entertainment centers in your living room. Sometimes you are mounting lights across a 12 to 20 foot wall.
We added a blog article on how and when to use the terminal block extenders. It was written for the old Loox systems but will apply the same to the Loox5.
Below are your Loox5 12V and 24V choices. Notice the yellow and dark green color coding to keep things straight with the drivers and lights.

Measurements on the cable male and female ends. And the distancing on the 4-port cable extender. These dimensions can help you with your layout and hole boring for running wires through or behind your cabinetry.
The Loox5 6-way terminal blocks for the hardwire application with the Dimmable E-Series Drivers are shown on that web page with the drivers. The 12v and 24v version of that driver are for special applications, sometimes when switching from Halogen lighting to LED lighting.
Help with Loox4 extension wires needed
Hafele is constantly evolving. Loox Lighting obviously started with Loox (Loox1). They have now progressed from Loox4 to Loox5. And will continue. Since the majority, if not all by now, of the Loox4 extension cables are sold out, here is how you can create a Loox4 cable by using the Loox5 cable and two adapters.
First, there are two kinds of adapters. One designed to go from old to new lights. And one designed to go from new to old. Both situations could arise when using older Loox4 LED power drivers, or having to upgrade to a Loox5 LED driver and distributor combination. For now, we will focus on the extension wires.
With two kinds of adapters, in both 12v and 24v systems, that is 4 part numbers. Shown immediately below.

To convert the Loox5 cable to a usable Loox4 cable, do this:
For 12v systems, order the qty. you need of cables, the 833.95.712, or .713, etc. numbers. Then per qty of cables, you will need one each of the 833.95.752 to precede the cable, and one 833.95.753 to end the cable. Thus the cable started with two yellow ends. Now it has two orange ends and can be used as a Loox4 extension cable.
For 24v systems, order the qty. you need of cables, the 833.95.719, or .718, etc. numbers. Then per qty of cables again, you will need one each of the 833.77.833 to precede the cable, and one 833.77.838 to end the cable. Thus the cable started with two DARK green ends. Now it has two lighter green ends and can be used as a Loox4 extension cable for 24v lights.
