LED Up/Down Cylinder Wall Light — Selectable Lumen & Color Temp, Direction Select (Up / Down / Up&Down), IP65 — Features & Specs

The CYL-UPDN Up/Down Cylinder Luminaire is a versatile architectural wall light with field-selectable lumen output, color temperature, and direction mode. Choose up-only, down-only, or up & down emission, and dial in one of three output levels per model. A sealed, powder-coated aluminum body, toughened glass lens, and IP65 rating make it a reliable choice for entryways, columns, accent façades, and perimeter paths. For larger-area wall illumination, compare with wall pack lights, and see broader categories under architectural outdoor wall lights.

Applications & Design Notes

Use CYL-UPDN to create vertical emphasis (up-light on columns and soffits), pedestrian-scale downlight near entries, or symmetrical up/down accents along modern façades. The three-step lumen selector makes it easy to right-size output at commissioning—start mid-range, then fine-tune to reduce glare or meet target illuminance. With CRI > 90, this cylinder renders natural materials (stone, wood, brick) and signage with excellent fidelity, while the 35° optic contains spill light for clean edges and minimal sky glow. For broad, uniform perimeter lighting, a dedicated wall-pack solution may be preferred; use cylinders to layer architectural accents alongside area coverage.
