A cabinet system with integrated lighting and power includes a cabinet defining a first illumination zone, a first connector having at least a first port and a second port, and a first light strip. The first light strip has an elongate substrate with a first end, a second end, a plurality of illumination elements spaced apart along the substrate, and multiple traces extending lengthwise along the substrate. The multiple traces include a voltage trace, a first trace connected to the plurality of illumination elements, and a second trace not connected to the plurality of illumination elements. The first end is received in the first port of the first connector. A driver is coupled to a power source and has a lead connected to the second port on the first connector. The illumination elements of the first light strip are selectively controlled by controlling power to the voltage trace and the first trace to illuminate the illumination zone.
