Suspended by an aircraft cable, the field-cuttable fixture, 8' long x 2" high and less than an inch thick, comes in black or white powder-coated finishes.

Line Black
Selux developed this 4½" diameter column with Dark Sky–certified communities in mind. It features integrated optics that emit less than 0.5% uplight but with a microfaceted black reflector that effectively illuminates roads and pathways. Available in several heights, each column can accommodate two optics, allowing it to cast light on separate areas from one position.
