Re: KNX vs Lutron vs Rako vs Control4 lighting
The Lutron Grafik-Eye units need special cable as well.

It is their own concoction (read 'expensive') which has a couple of large cores for power and a smaller twisted pair with overall screen for data. The outer insulation is 500V rated as these cables are connected adjacent to terminals carrying 240V in the back of the units.

It might have been better to select your solution before you prewired as you have now slightly limited your options.
