Molex Announces LED Offering for Government, Commercial and Residential Construction
14 September 2009 - 2:04PM
Business Wire
Molex Incorporated (NASDAQ:MOLX)(NASDAQ:MOLXA) today introduced
to the government, commercial and residential construction markets
the company’s new series of patent-pending SSL products, the
Transcend™ Lighting Series, which will be sold exclusively by
Leviton Manufacturing Company, Inc. in North America. The
innovative new products are small, interchangeable modules, which
address some of the barriers to widespread adoption of LED
technology, including precise heat and current management and the
necessary optical design for superior illumination. The unique,
sustainable format allows electrical and lighting contractors on
residential and commercial sites to use Transcend LED lights in
existing fixtures – from decorative wall sconces to recessed cans
and track lights – all while meeting code requirements.
“The lighting market lacked a full service integrator that
answered the needs of electrical and lighting contractors in the
residential and commercial construction markets,” said Mike Picini,
vice president of Solid State Lighting, Molex Incorporated. “We
developed the Transcend Lighting Series for the LED marketplace to
enable more rapid adoption and greater acceptance of LED lighting.
The new series is plug-and-play and meets current and possible
future building code requirements, including Title 24, making it
easier for electrical and lighting contractors to take full
advantage of LED technology.”
The Transcend Lighting Series will be available globally in
September 2009 and enables electrical and lighting contractors to
incorporate LED lights into their construction projects. Molex will
showcase its first two products at the 2009 NECA Convention and
Trade Show in Seattle, September 12-15 (Booth 411), which
include:
- The Transcend RM2, a 2"
reflector module, which provides efficient LED directional light
with various beam intensity and angular distribution
- The Transcend PM3, a 3”surface
puck module, which provides a diffused optic for ambient or
decorative light
Both Transcend products are based on the AcricheTM 4W AC LED
from Seoul Semiconductor and can be directly plugged into the AC
line voltage without a converter or separate power supply. Other
product features include:
- Available with GU24 base or
direct wire attachment

- Two beam angles: 11° and 25°
available for RM2 module and 112° for PM3
