LED strip ABILITE SMD5050 5 m, 60 LEDs/m, 14.4 W/m, 12 V

ABILITE SMD5050 LED strip, 5 m long with 60 LEDs per metre and a rated power of 14.4 W/m, operates from a 12 V DC supply. The flexible SMD5050 module strip is designed for interior accent, task and decorative lighting where continuous, high-density LED layout is required. The strip can be cut at designated intervals and requires a compatible 12 V power supply, appropriate connectors and mounting accessories for installation.

Advantages

The SMD5050 chip format delivers consistent light output and good colour rendering for its class while the 60 LEDs/m density provides even illumination with fewer visible hotspots. With a power consumption of 14.4 W per metre the strip balances brightness and energy use for many indoor lighting tasks. Its flexible substrate allows installation on curved and flat surfaces and it is compatible with common mounting and connector systems used for 12 V LED installations.

Suitable for

• Under-cabinet kitchen lighting and worktop illumination
• Shelf, display case and retail lighting for product highlighting
• Accent lighting in living rooms, bedrooms and corridors
• Indirect cove lighting and architectural detail backlighting

Key specifications

• Strip length: 5 m
• LED density: 60 LEDs per metre
• LED type: SMD5050
• Power consumption: 14.4 W per metre
• Rated supply voltage: 12 V DC
• Flexible PCB for curved and flat mounting
• Cuttable at marked intervals to fit installation length

How to use

Plan the run length and calculate the required 12 V power supply capacity including a safety margin. Prepare the mounting surface, attach the strip using the recommended adhesive backing or mounting channel, and make electrical connections with compatible 12 V connectors or solder joints. Observe the indicated cut marks when shortening the strip and ensure correct polarity when connecting to the power supply. For longer runs or multiple segments, use appropriate gauge wiring and consider power injection to avoid voltage drop.

Usage recommendations

Select a 12 V DC power supply with sufficient wattage for the total installed length (total metres × 14.4 W/m plus margin). Use aluminium mounting channels for improved heat dissipation and a clean appearance. Avoid exposure to moisture unless the strip is specifically rated for damp or wet locations; if needed, choose an IP-rated variant. For colour control or dimming, use controllers and drivers compatible with SMD5050 strips and the 12 V system.
