Product Description
NIOC-4SNDSQHW 4" Iolite Can-less Square Downlight Trim pairs a haze reflector with a white flange to deliver a refined, low-glare aesthetic. This can-less, IC Air-Tight system uses a separate 12W LED module and driver box, installs quickly with spring clips, and includes field-changeable optics for precise beam control.

Application Examples
- Residential living areas, kitchens, and corridors needing a square, architectural appearance
- Bathrooms and covered outdoor areas (wet-location listed with appropriate sealing)
- Retail and hospitality spaces requiring field-changeable beam control
- Remodels where a can-less solution speeds installation and reduces ceiling depth
Installation Tips
- Use the NJCB-12 driver box and connect to the 12W Iolite LED module; mount the trim with spring clips.
- Select and install the desired optic (spot / narrow flood / flood); optics are field-changeable.
- For longer runs, use NCA-EW-4 or NCA-EW-10 quick-connect cables; max 40' between driver and module.
- For new construction, the NF-R124 frame-in can help position and secure the assembly.
- Confirm wet-location sealing at the ceiling interface and follow all local electrical codes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a recessed housing required?
No. This is a can-less system that mounts with spring clips and uses a remote driver box.
What LED module and driver do I need?
Pair the trim with a 12W Iolite LED module (select CCT 2700K–4000K or Comfort Dim) and the NJCB-12 driver box.
How do I change the beam?
Each module includes three optics—spot, narrow flood, and flood. Remove the module from the trim, swap the optic, and reinstall.
Is it wet-location rated?
Yes, it is cULus listed for wet locations and suitable for bathrooms and other wet environments.
Can I extend the distance between the driver box and the light?
Yes. Use NCA-EW quick-connect extension cables; total length must not exceed 40'.
What accessories are available?
Hex louver for glare control, translucent decorative collars (AM/BLU/FR/R), and opaque snoot (MPW/WH) for a deeper cutoff look.
What is the expected lifetime?
Rated 50,000 hours (L70) with 90+ CRI performance.
Does it meet Title 24 JA8?
Yes, it is certified to JA8-2022 high-efficacy requirements.
