Abbreviated for &#8220;Category 5 Cable&#8221;. CAT5 are of the twisted pair high signal cable type.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Color Mixing:<\/strong> The addition of mixing red, green and blue to obtain mixed colors, all of which produce white light and subtractive primary mixing colors produces cyan, yellow and magenta.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Color Rendition Index:<\/strong> &#8220;RA&#8221;, the measurement of the degree to which color distortion occurs when a given light source is compared with a reference light source. Optimum color rendition has an index of RA as 100.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Color Saturation:<\/strong> The measurement, usually as a percentage, of the intensity of a pure color and white.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Color Temperature:<\/strong> A description of a light&#8217;s source color, measurebale in degrees Kelvin (k), or the most similar given color for thermal radiators.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cut-Off Angle:<\/strong> As no direct reflection of a lamp is visible within the reflector, this angle cuts directly above this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DMX:<\/strong> A term shorthand for &#8220;Digital Multiplexed Signal&#8221;. Theatrical stage lighting primarily employs this technology for lighting control.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DMX Address:<\/strong> A numerical code assigned to a DMX controller or DMX Direct Fixture, which allows each address to be controlled independently.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DMX Direct Fixture :<\/strong> A feature that allows an individual lighting fixture to be controlled independently using its own DMX address.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Foot Candle:<\/strong> A measurement of the amount of light that falls on a given surface. One (1) foot candle is equal to one lumen per square foot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>InternaMIX\u2122:<\/strong> A proprietary feature that provides a smooth 1-color light output at the fixture level, with no RGB pixelation at close proximities or rainbow effects in shadows.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lumen:<\/strong> Also known as &#8220;lm&#8221;, a lumen is a measurement of the total light power of a light source.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RGB:<\/strong> Shorthand for Red, Green, Blue. Additive color synthesis of RGB colors produces lights of different colors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RGBW:<\/strong> Shorthand for Red, Green, Blue and White. Additive color synthesis of RGBW colors produces lights of different colors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RJ45:<\/strong> A type of registered jack that attaches the ends of CAT5 cables into interfaces such as information for telecommunications. DMX controllers or low voltage power modules.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wallwasher:<\/strong> A type of fixture that when spaced equally and parallel to a wall, a wallwasher is when an illumination with a reflector provides for uniform wall lighting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Architainment: A marketing pop word merging the technical nature of architectural lighting with the artisanship of entertainment lighting.
