WAC Lighting - 72" Basics and Gemini 24VDC Joiner Cable

Build an economical and versatile layered LED Tape light system using Basics or Gemini. Basics & Gemini LED tape lights are easy-to-setup with seamless and scalable run lengths, sharing power supplies and components. Basics LED Tape delivers precision and performance with two selectable power outputs and five selectable color temperatures from warm 2700K to cool 5000 Kelvin. Gemini is a continuous phosphorus (COB) tape that eliminates unsightly diode imaging and great for applications where the LED Tape Light is reflected or in direct sight.

  • Basics & Gemini 24VDC In-Wall Rated Joiner Cable 72in Length
  • Joiner cables can be used to connect two strips of Basics & Gemini Tape Light together with power continuity.
  • Flexible and customizable with a low profile. Use with universal input voltage 120-220-277V power supply: PS-24DC-U and T24-BS-EX2 lead wire required or 120VAC power supply: EN-BT60 with lead wire included.
  • Basics LED tape light can be cut in the field every 4in and re-connected with safe and secure connectors. Gemini LED tape light can be cut in the field every 2in and re-connected with safe and secure connectors. Smooth robust illumination deployed from evenly placed UV coated LEDs for cove, accent and task lighting applications.
  • Smooth and continuous dimming with an electronic low voltage dimmer (ELV), TRIAC or 0-10V (0-10V only available with PS-24DC-U power Supply). Dimmers should be installed on the primary side of the transformer. Driver input voltage: 120V-220V-277V AC, Driver output voltage: 24V DC. Driver is available in a 288W max load.
  • High Powered LED's 90+ CRI, Rated Hours: 80,000, Voltage: 24V, Lumen Options: 100+ lm/ft, or 200+ lm/ft.

WAC Lighting T24-BS-IC-072-BK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the WAC T24-BS-IC-072 joiner cable actually do in a tape light run?
The T24-BS-IC-072 is a 72 inch joiner cable that links two sections of WAC Basics or Gemini 24VDC tape light while keeping power continuity through the run. Use it to jump a gap, a corner, or a cabinet break where you do not want to see tape, then continue the run on the far side. Wire length is 72 inches, so it extends the distance between sections by six feet.
2) Can this joiner cable run inside a wall or does it have to stay in the cabinet?
It is an in-wall rated 24VDC joiner cable, so the 72 inch lead can be routed through a wall between tape sections rather than being limited to exposed cove or cabinet runs. It is an indoor part, rated for damp locations and IP20, so it is not for wet exterior use.
3) Will this work with WAC Gemini COB tape or only Basics tape?
Both. Basics and Gemini are built as one 24VDC system that shares power supplies and components, and this joiner cable is specified for either tape. If you are mixing a Basics run with a Gemini run on the same supply, the same joiner connects them.
4) What power supply do I need with a WAC Basics 24V tape run using this joiner?
Two paths. With the universal 120/220/277V input PS-24DC-U supply you also need the T24-BS-EX2 lead wire. With the 120VAC EN-BT60 supply the lead wire is included. Driver output is 24V DC and the driver is offered up to a 288W max load. The joiner cable itself carries no transformer, it only continues the 24V run.
5) Does adding a joiner cable affect dimming on the run?
Dimming is handled on the line side, not at the joiner. Basics and Gemini dim with an electronic low voltage (ELV) dimmer, TRIAC, or 0-10V, and 0-10V is only available when you use the PS-24DC-U power supply. Dimmers go on the primary side of the transformer, so a joiner downstream of the driver does not change the dimming method.
6) Where can I cut WAC Basics or Gemini tape before reconnecting it with a joiner?
Basics tape cuts in the field every 4 inches; Gemini cuts every 2 inches. Both reconnect with WAC's secure connectors, so plan your cut point to the nearest increment, then bridge the gap with the 72 inch joiner cable.
7) Does this WAC tape light system meet California Title 24 and ADA requirements?
Yes on both. The Basics and Gemini system is CEC Title 24 compliant and ADA compliant, Energy Star, and UL and cUL Listed for damp locations at IP20. That covers the usual questions on commercial and multi-family specs in California jurisdictions.
8) What finishes does the 72 inch WAC joiner cable come in, and does it matter which I pick?
Black (T24-BS-IC-072-BK) and white (T24-BS-IC-072-WT). Pick the one that matches your tape and channel so the cable disappears where it crosses an exposed gap; electrically they are the same part.
9) Can I mount the joiner cable vertically or on a ceiling?
Any orientation is fine. The cable can be mounted on a ceiling or wall in all orientations, which is what makes it workable for cove, toe-kick, and soffit transitions where the run changes plane.
10) How bulky is the joiner connector where it meets the tape?
Low profile. The connector body measures 0.57 by 0.38 inches, with 74 inches overall including the 72 inch wire, so it tucks into most aluminum channels and cabinet reveals without a visible lump.
