PHOTOBIO PHOTO LOC 0-10V TM Adapter Cable - RJ11 to 2-Pin - 20-ft - for MX/TX/T

Bridge PHOTO LOC Signal to an RJ11/RJ12 Controller Port

Some centralized grow room controllers, such as TrolMaster's Hydro-X system, expect an RJ11 or RJ12 port rather than PHOTOBIO's native PHOTO LOC connector, which can otherwise leave MX, TX, and T fixtures unable to report into that system. This adapter cable converts the PHOTO LOC 0-10V signal connection to an RJ11/RJ12 port, closing that gap.

The 20-foot length is built to reach from a fixture run to a controller mounted at the room's edge, using an LMA-14 adapter where the target controller requires one.

Key Features & Benefits

• 20-Foot Length — reaches from the fixture run to a wall- or rack-mounted controller location.
• RJ11/RJ12 Adapter Connection — bridges PHOTO LOC signal to common third-party controller ports.
• 18AWG Wiring — carries DC communications signal reliably over the full cable run.
• Push-Lock 3P-2P Connection — connects securely to the PHOTO LOC Trunk-with-Branch T Cable on the fixture side.

Who Should Use This Adapter Cable

Growers connecting MX, TX, or T fixtures to a centralized controller through an RJ11 or RJ12 port, including TrolMaster's Hydro-X system through an LMA-14 adapter, should use this cable.

About PHOTOBIO

PHOTOBIO's PHOTO LOC system carries 0-10V signal between MX, TX, and T fixtures and a centralized controller, running alongside the fixtures' AC power wiring as a separate Communication Tree. This adapter cable is one of several PHOTO LOC accessories built to interface that system with third-party controller hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

What controllers does this cable work with?

Any controller with an RJ11 or RJ12 port, including TrolMaster's Hydro-X system through an LMA-14 adapter. Check your specific controller's documentation to confirm port compatibility before ordering.

How does this fit into the Communication Tree?

It connects to fixtures through the PHOTO LOC Trunk-with-Branch T Cable, then carries signal 20 feet to the controller side, completing the link between fixtures and centralized control. It is not a stand-alone signal source.

What gauge wire does this cable use?

18AWG wiring, sized to carry the PHOTO LOC system's 0-10V DC signal reliably over the full 20-foot run. This matches the wire gauge used throughout the rest of the Communication Tree.

Do I need an LMA-14 adapter with this cable?

Only if your controller specifically requires one, such as TrolMaster's Hydro-X system. Some RJ11/RJ12 controllers accept this cable's connector directly without an additional adapter.
