THROUGH THE Cultivator's LENS Hands-On Evaluation

  • You are adding fixtures to your existing light rows because your current setup lacks a uniform control signal path
  • You are daisy-chaining multiple units because you need to keep your dimming controls synced across a large rack

  • The ferrite core is the real deal, effectively stopping the signal noise that often causes LED flicker
  • We prefer these push-lock connectors because they stay seated even when there is high humidity in the grow room

  • Users who swapped to these cables say they stopped seeing random light dimming issues across their rows
  • Operators report that the IP66 rating survives the constant moisture and cleaning cycles in their facility

Photobio PHOTO-LOC 0-10V CX Control Cable w/ Ferrite | 10′ 3PF-3PM

Maintaining clean 0-10V control signals between PHOTOBIO CX fixtures in a multi-fixture installation requires a cable built for the electromagnetic noise inherent in high-intensity LED grow environments. The Photobio PHOTO-LOC CX Control Cable with Ferrite is a 10-foot straight interconnect cord purpose-built for CX-to-CX signal runs, featuring a ferrite core for EMC suppression, IP66-rated connectors for dust and water protection, and 22AWG braided flexible copper wiring with UV-resistant jacket. The 3PF-to-3PM push-lock configuration keeps connections fast and secure at every fixture junction.

Multiple cables can be connected end to end to span fixture spacing beyond 10 feet, giving you the flexibility to adapt to any row length or rack configuration without sourcing a custom cable. Note that connector color may be orange or blue depending on production run — both are functionally identical.

Features

📡
Ferrite EMC Suppression

Integrated ferrite core mitigates electromagnetic interference to maintain clean, stable 0-10V control signal integrity across CX fixture-to-fixture connections.

🛡️
IP66-Rated Protection

Cable and connectors are IP66-rated for complete dust protection and resistance to powerful water jets — built for rigorous indoor farm and greenhouse conditions.

🔌
Push-Lock Connections

3PF-to-3PM push-lock connectors provide fast, secure signal interconnection between CX fixtures without tools or additional hardware.

22AWG Braided Copper

Flexible 22AWG braided copper wiring with UV-resistant jacket delivers reliable signal transmission while withstanding prolonged exposure to high-intensity grow lighting, which can be monitored with a Photobio PAR Meter.

📐
Daisy-Chainable

Multiple cables can be connected end to end to extend signal runs. For larger commercial layouts, we also offer a 300-foot control cable with ferrite.

💡
CX-Specific Design

Purpose-built for PHOTOBIO CX fixture interconnection within the PHOTOBIO DC Communication Tree system — not a universal control cable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this cable used for? +

This cable is a fixture-to-fixture 0-10V control signal interconnect designed specifically for PHOTOBIO CX LED fixtures. It carries the dimming control signal between two CX fixtures within the PHOTOBIO DC Communication Tree system and is not intended for controller-to-fixture or other fixture-family connections.

What does the ferrite core do? +

The ferrite core provides EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) suppression, reducing high-frequency interference from nearby electrical equipment — including LED drivers — that can corrupt low-voltage 0-10V control signals. This helps ensure consistent, stable dimming performance across all connected CX fixtures.

Can I extend the run beyond 10 feet? +

Yes. Multiple PHOTO-LOC CX Control Cables can be connected end to end to span fixture spacing greater than 10 feet. This makes it straightforward to accommodate wider row spacing or non-standard fixture layouts without custom cabling.

What does IP66 mean for this cable? +

IP66 means the cable and connectors are completely dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets from any direction. This rating is well-suited for the wet, humid conditions found in commercial greenhouse and indoor farm environments.

My connector is a different color than expected — is something wrong? +

No. The connector color on the PHOTO-LOC CX Control Cable may be either orange or blue depending on the production run. Both colors are functionally identical — the color difference has no impact on performance or compatibility.

Is this cable compatible with PHOTOBIO MX, TX, or T fixtures? +

No. This cable is purpose-built for PHOTOBIO CX fixture-to-fixture interconnection only. Fixtures like the PHOTOBIO MX2 or the TX2 series use a different cable architecture. To maintain signal strength over long distances for those fixture families, you may also require a PHOTOBIO 0-10V Signal Repeater.
