Domus PLEX-COB RGB IP20 Live Cable Connector 5 Pack

The Domus PLEX-COB RGB IP20 Live Cable Connector is a solderless strip-to-driver connector for RGB strip — IP20, 500 mm or 2000 mm tail, 5 pack.

⛔ It is IP20. The strip it connects is IP54 or IP67.

• ⭐ This connector publishes IP20 — protection against solid objects above 12.5 mm, and NO water protection at all.
• ⭐ The PLEX COB strip it attaches to is sold in IP54 and IP67. ⚠ So the connector is a lower rating than either.
• ⭐⭐ AND AN ASSEMBLY IS RATED AT ITS WEAKEST POINT. ⭐ A run of IP67 strip terminated with an IP20 connector is not an IP67 installation at the connector — ⭐ it is an IP67 strip with an unrated joint in it.
• ⛔ Nothing published addresses this. ⭐ The strip listings state their rating; this connector states its own; and no page explains what the combination gives you.
• ⭐ THE PRACTICAL ANSWER: put the connector somewhere dry. ⭐ Inside a cabinet, above a ceiling, behind a sealed panel — ⭐ so the strip does the wet work and the connection does not. ⚠ That is a layout decision, not a product one, and it has to be made before the detail is built.
• ⭐ If the connection genuinely has to sit in the wet, ask us — ⚠ a different termination method is needed and this is not it.

⭐ RGB-specific — and that is a good thing

⭐ This listing is for RGB strip only, rather than carrying the type as a variant. ⭐ It is the clearer arrangement of the two used across this accessory range — ⭐ a buyer with an RGB strip finds an RGB connector, with no risk of selecting the wrong variant. ⚠ The opposite-wiring listing carries five types under a title naming one, which is the arrangement that causes trouble. ⭐ An RGB strip needs four conductors — a common plus red, green and blue — and a connector for a simpler strip physically will not serve it.

⭐ 500 mm or 2000 mm — and why the longer one is usually right

⭐ The tail runs from the strip to the driver, so its length is set by where the driver lives. ⭐ On an RGB run the driver is not alone — there is a controller too, ⭐ and the pair needs more room than a single driver does. ⚠ 500 mm rarely reaches a location that fits both. ⭐ Take the 2000 mm.

⭐ Solderless, and it fits the profile

⭐ A pair of pliers, no iron. ⭐ Published pulling force 4.64 kgf. ⭐ And Domus states the connectors fit inside the profile — ⭐ so a feed point does not force the strip out of its channel.

✅ What is published

⛔ Made to order — and the "cut to length" part is not about this product

Domus flags this as made to order, so it is not held on a shelf. ⛔ No lead time is published. Call our team to confirm availability before ordering. ⭐ We will. ⚠ The flag also says "cut to length", which comes from a generic sentence about the STRIP — ⭐ a connector cannot be cut to length, and nothing about the lead time depends on that.

Where it works

• ⭐ RGB runs terminated in a dry position — ⭐ cabinet, ceiling, sealed panel.
• ⭐ Feed points inside the profile.
• ⭐ Where the driver and controller are up to 2 m away.
• ⛔ Not in a wet position — ⚠ IP20.
• ⚠ Not assumed to preserve an IP67 rating.

Specifying it

Solderless IP20 live cable connector for PLEX-COB RGB LED strip, 5 pack. 500 mm or 2000 mm tail. Pliers only. Pulling force 4.64 kgf. Fits inside the profile. ⛔ IT IS IP20 AND THE STRIP IT CONNECTS IS IP54 OR IP67 — and an assembly is rated at its weakest point, so a run of IP67 strip terminated with an IP20 connector is an IP67 strip with an unrated joint in it. ⭐ NOTHING PUBLISHED ADDRESSES THE COMBINATION. ⭐ THE PRACTICAL ANSWER IS A LAYOUT ONE: put the connector somewhere dry — a cabinet, above a ceiling, behind a sealed panel — so the strip does the wet work and the connection does not.
