  • Patent number: 10605414
    Abstract: A luminaire includes a lightguide, end caps on respective ends of the lightguide, a contact block with a pair of apertures for receiving a pair of suspension cables, one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) disposed within each end cap to project light into an edge of the lightguide, and a pair of suspension cables to support the luminaire and provide electrical power to the LEDs. A configurable power supply box, to be mounted to a ceiling or above a drop ceiling to provide power to the luminaire via the suspension cables, is also disclosed.
