You can purchase a few feet of the pigtail 4-wire and some LED strip to LED strip quick connectors, cut those connectors in half and solder in this purchased 4-wire (basic soldering skills required) and use it to break away from/return to a LED segment.
For example, I used an RGB strip along the top side of a very large, 18 foot window with long, semi-transparent drapes over them. Running up the side behind the drapes is 4-wire, perfectly concealed, allowing a power source and RGB controller place somewhere else out of sight.
After calling the company, I've confirmed this is the ONLY possible way to go from an LED strip segment... to 4-wire... and back to LED segment. This is a great (and very cost friendly) way to run a 16 foot LED strip, cut into several pieces, to a few different locations... all using the same power and controller someone remote. More LED strips can easily be added to extend the effect. Also confirmed by the companies engineers, you can run up to 30 feet of 4-wire (additive) in-between LED segments before you even have to begin to compensate for voltage drop.

If you're going to be running a small amount of wire for a LED project, this is a great product. But I would go with 18AWG CL2 Rated 4-Conductor Loud Speaker Cable 100ft(For In-Wall Installation) if you're going a longer distance, and just to have extra wire around.Best Deals for LEDwholesalers 18 Gauge 4 Conductor Wire Sold By the Foot for RGB
This was almost perfect for the job I am doing. The only thing that was a problem was that the wires are BLK, BLU, RED, GRN. The LED strips that I bought were V+, GRN, RED, BLU. If I could have switched the black wire over to the other side, it would have been a perfect match. Oh well, I just split the black at the end and jumped it over. Still very happy with it and I am buying more!Also, I was amazed at how fast they shipped it!!!!!
