the spike fittings can be simply pushed into the ground and connected to the hub using quick-fit connectors, with no wiring or tools required. Two and four-way splitters are also available, enabling the system to be configured to suit a wide range of outdoor layouts.
Highly flexible, this inventive modular design allows lights to be added, adjusted or repositioned with ease at any time and without the need for further electrical work.
The central hub enables seamless control across all connected luminaires and allows for CCT selection between 3000K and 4000K. An OCTO-enabled version is also available, offering remote access to dimming, scheduling and other adjustments via smartphone or tablet. All luminaires in the Foliar Connect range are IP66-rated, making them robust, weather- resistant and built to perform reliably in all outdoor conditions.
