Philips Hue only allows for a single continuous lightstrip run. Litcessory products allow for several! This controller to 6-pin adapter, specifically designed for the Philips Hue Lightstrip system, allows for any Litcessory product or a Philips Lightstrip Plus Extension to be connected directly to a Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus controller. There are two version of this adapter, a hardwired version and a detachable version. You will need to identify which version you need by looking at your Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus controller. These adapters solve the issue created by the starter lightstrip either being directly attached to the controller (the Hardwired Version) or the issue created by the controllers connector size being smaller than any Litcessory product or a Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus Extension (the Detachable Version). One adapter connects to the controller and the other attaches to the starter lightstrip. Once both adapters are attached, it will provide a 6-pin connection between the controller and the starter lightstrip that can be used to attach any Litcessory product or a Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus Extension. This product is great for Any custom lighting setup where a Litcessory extension cable is placed between the controller and the first strip of lights Installations where the controller needs to be placed in a different location than the first strip of lights (for example, to reach a power source) MADE FOR INDOOR DRY LOCATIONS ONLY
