Overview

The Lumishore 010-14462-00 is a 5 m (16 ft) DMX extension cable used to link Lumishore driver modules in series or extend the DMX run in a Lumishore lighting system.

It is the same length as the DMX cable commonly supplied with 2 x EOS light sets and is typically added when the driver modules or control hardware are mounted farther apart than the standard lead allows.

On a boat, treat it like any other low-voltage control cable: route it where it will not chafe, leave service slack at each end, and keep the connection points out of standing water.

Key features

• 5 m (16 ft) cable length for extending DMX runs between lighting components
• Used to connect Lumishore driver modules in series or add distance to an existing DMX cable run
• Commonly paired with installations using 2 x EOS light sets
• Helps keep a clean cable path when drivers are mounted in a console, locker, or engine room and the control location is elsewhere
• Other lengths in the same DMX cable family are available for shorter or longer routes

Compatibility and fit

This extension cable is meant for the Lumishore DMX connections used on Lumishore driver modules and related lighting control hardware. Confirm the mating connectors match what is on your existing Lumishore DMX lead before ordering.

Installation and setup

Plan the route from connector to connector, then add slack for a drip loop and for servicing the module later. Support the cable so vibration does not pull on the ends, and keep it clear of sharp edges, hinges, and hot engine room surfaces.

If the run passes through bulkheads or fiberglass, use proper chafe protection and avoid tightening cable ties so much that they pinch the jacket.

Use cases on board

This cable is a practical add-on for boats that are expanding an existing Lumishore lighting layout, relocating driver modules for better access, or spacing modules out to reach multiple zones around the hull.

Maintenance and care

If a lighting zone drops out intermittently, inspect the DMX connections for moisture and make sure both ends are fully seated. Keeping the connectors clean and secured helps a lot on boats that see washdowns and vibration.
