Lighting Solutions
Tackling new designs and converting existing lights to SSL requires new technology and new expertise from TE Connectivity (TE).
LEDs provide brighter, longer lasting, and lower-power solutions for continuous lighting. But only if delivered and protected properly. Whether you are creating a new lighting system or enhancing an existing design, TE can help you bring your designs to light.
