Power Linking of Multiple Devices 

This device supports power linking. Power can be relayed to another device via the power OUT 
connector. Note that the input and the output connectors have different designs: one type cannot be 
connected to the other. 

Power linking of multiple devices must be carried out only by instructed or skilled persons. 

 

WARNING 
Incorrect power linking may lead to overload of the electrical circuit and result in serious 
injuries and damage of property. 

To prevent overload of the electrical circuit, when power linking multiple devices: 

 

Use cables with sufficient current-carrying capacity. The power cable supplied with the device is not 
suitable for power linking of multiple device. 

 

Make sure that the total current draw of the device and all connected devices does not exceed the 
rated capacity of the power cables and the circuit breaker. 

 

Do not link more devices on one power link than the maximum recommended number. 

Maximum recommended number of devices: 

 

at 100–120 V: 8 devices Pixelbar 16 Q6  

 

at 200–240 V: 15 devices Pixelbar 16 Q6
