Pole-Mount Street Light Controller

Our OpenSky IoT Pole-Mount smart street lighting controller (SLC) uses open standard telecom network. Use of cellular network allows the IoT controller to connect directly to a local cell tower (2G/ 3G/ 4G/ NB-IoT). This eliminates the need for dedicated Gateways.

A single luminaire controller is suitable for single, dual or four-arm poles and does not rely on NEMA or Zhaga receptacle.

OpenSky IoT Pole-Mount light controller is a perfect smart city street lighting solution that is economical to deploy throughout your city.

Open Standard Cellular Network - Pole-Mount Street Light Controller

Open Standard Cellular Network

Public infrastructure demand high reliability and security. Therefore, OpenSky IoT OLC (outdoor light controller) uses standardized 3GPP cellular network to connect an individual street light to our light management platform.

OpenSky outdoor light controller automatically selects the best available local connectivity: Edge (EGPRS), LTE Cat M1 or NB-IoT (NB2).

Cellular networks comply to highest global security standards. It is used by billions of devices today. They offer long range, deep coverage, high availability and managed Low Power Wide Area network (LPWAN).

Gateway Free Installation

Unlike proprietary network providers (e.g. LoRA, Sigfox, Zigbee, Wi-Sun and UNB), OpenSky street light controller connects directly with our light management platform via local cellphone tower.

There is no need for local Gateways. This in turn significantly reduces cost and hassle of maintaining a local network infrastructure, since local operators manage and maintain the network.

Auto-Commissioning - Pole-Mount Street Light Controller

Auto-Commissioning

In-built GPS within OpenSky light controller supports automatic registration. This helps a local electrician to install the controllers without an expert knowledge/ training.

  • No need for a field application tool
  • No network engineering needed
  • OpenSky automatically receives its geo-location through:
    • GPS
    • GLONASS
    • Galileo
    • QZSS

Individual Light Management

Different parts of a city have different road lighting requirements. Individual light management through OpenSky outdoor light controller offers incredible flexibility.

Each luminaire can be individually switched and dimmed using custom light scenes. Vice versa, luminaires send meaningful alerts for smart and efficient maintenance.
