China - Traxon Technologies has introduced the Shield AC XB lighting system, designed for wall washing and grazing applications where fixtures are located far from the control area, or where the structural construction is complicated and extensive cabling or mounting is limited.

Powered by line voltage, the Shield AC XB system can run up to 300m away from the nearest power source. It eliminates the need for separate driver units and is suited for large scale architectural installations, such as bridges and high-rise buildings, as it allows more flexible placement of fixtures in outdoor applications, says the company.

Based on the standard daisy-chain topology and using one cable for power and data, the Shield AC XB system simplifies wiring and helps save installation time and costs. The field-installable connectors provide wiring flexibility, allowing installers to optimize cable length and fixture positions.
